ONE HUNDRED 
SEVENTEENTH COUNCIL 


LOXJIS MASON, Jr. _President 

LOUIS C. DINARDO_City Clerk 


MICHAEL A. PERRY_Ass’t City Clerk 

Pittsburgh, Pa., 

Monday, January 3, 1972 

On Monday, January 5, 1972, at 10:00 
o’clock, A.M., the members-elect of the 
Council of the City of Pittsburgh, to¬ 
gether with those holding over, convened 
in the Council Chamber of said City in 
accordance with the provisions of the 
Act of Assembly of the Commonwealth 
of Pennsylvania, approved May 31, 1911. 

The Council was called to order by 
Louis C. DiNardo, City Clerk, who acted 
as Chairman, Pro tern of the meeting. 

The meeting was opened by the reci¬ 
tation of the pledge of allegiance to the 
Flag of the United States of America. 

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the 
United States of America, and to the 
Republic for which it stands, one Na¬ 
tion, under God, indivisible, with lib¬ 
erty and justice for all. 

The Chair: 

This being the day and hour 
fixed by the Act of Assembly for the or¬ 
ganization of the Council of the City of 


Pittsburgh, the One Hundred Seven¬ 
teenth Council will toe in order. 

We are honored this morning by the 
presence of the Reverend Canon Junius 
F. Carter of the Holy Cross Episcopal 
Church, who will offer the Prayer of 
Invocation. 


Reverend Carter: 

“O God, who are Lord of time 
and dost stand at the gate of the New 
Year, we ask thy blessings upon those 
to be installed as Councilmen of the 
City of Pittsburgh. 

Grant that they may come to under¬ 
take the work of local government as a 
vocation and ministry; that they may 
bring to their work brains that think 
and hearts that feel; that they may have 
ideals, imagination, wisdom and cour¬ 
age; that they may never be enslaved 
by routine and convention and popular 
opinion; but ever be upheld by thy 
free spirit. 

O God, who has called our City to a 
place of trust and responsibility, we 
humbly thank Thee for all the ways in 
which thou has blessed and guided us 
unto this day. Stir up the wills of all 
our people to support these men in the 
relief of want and suffering, and let us 
not rest until we have provided for the 
needs of all citizens of this City, 

Grant that their ideals and aspira¬ 
tions may be in accordance with thy 
will, and help them to see themselves as 
they see others. Keep them from hy¬ 
pocrisy in feeling or action; grant them 
sound government and just laws; good 
education and a clear press; simplicity 
and justice in their relations with one 
another and, above all, a spirit of serv¬ 
ice which will abolish pride of place 


i 















RICHARD S. CALIGUIRI 


and inequality of opportunity in thy 
name, we ask the God who rules this 
nation. AMEN/' 

The Chair: 

Thank you, Reverend Carter.

The Chair: 

The Honorable Frederic G. Weir 
of the Court of Common Pleas of the 
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will ad¬ 
minister the Oath of Office to the mem¬ 
bers elect. Will they approach the po¬ 
dium and raise their right hands. 

Judge Weir: 

Ladies and Gentlemen; 

Before I administer the Oath of Of¬ 
fice this morning, I would like to say 
how very pleased I was when Lou Mason 
called and asked me to do this. 

We have been leading a rather clois¬ 
tered life in the Common Pleas Court 
and I recognize this opportunity as one 
in which to get out where the action is. 
According to the news media, what’s 
going on between City Council and the 
Mayor certainly is exciting. I feel, in 
some respects, in administering the Oath 
of Office, like a kid that keeps going to 
school. 

But, I do recognize that you do have 
your problems. Someone said that Ralph 
Lynch was told not to go to that meet¬ 
ing on Friday. I don’t believe that his 
intention was to go to work in his nice 
dinner jacket. I know that Amy Bal¬ 
linger was there in her nice evening 
gown with the other Members of Coun¬ 
cil who had come to have this meeting. 

In your problem with Pete, I knew he 
was popular but with the mess up in 
Common Pleas Court the other day, our 
Judge Ellenbogen couldn’t even remem¬ 
ber his name. He did know that he was 
a young, good-looking attorney who had 
practiced law up there. So, maybe 
things aren’t as bad as they seem. 

With that, I can now administer the 
Oath to you.

The following members-elect: 

Amy Ballinger, Richard S. Cali- 
guiri, Eugene P. DePasquale, Walter T. 
Kamyk and Louis Mason, Jr., took and 
subscribed to the oath of office. 

The Chair: 

The members will sign the oath. 

And the members signed their re¬ 
spective oath of office. 

The Chair: 

The Clerk will call the roll. 

And the roll having been called, there 
were present: 

Miss Ballinger Mr. Kamyk 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Lynch 

Mr. DePasquale Mr. Mason 

Mr. Fagan Mr. Michaels 

Mr. Shields 


The Chair: 

The first order of business is 
the nomination and election of a Mem¬ 
ber of Council to serve as President for 
the ensuing term. 

The Chair recognizes Mr, Fagan. 

Mr. Fagan: 

Mr. Chairman, I rise at this 
time to place for nomination the name 
of a man who for many years served on 
the Commission of Human Relations, 
who is an outstanding community public 
servant and a hard working member of 
this body. It gives me a great deal of 
pleasure to place in nomination the 
name of Mr. Louis Mason, Jr., for Presi¬ 
dent of City Council. 

Mr. Kamyk: 

Mr. Chairman, I rise to second 
the nomination of Mr. Louis Mason. I 
have known Mr. Mason for a number of 
years; as Executive Director of the Com¬ 
mission on Human Relations and then 
as a Councilman and President of City 
Council. 



He is a hard working man and goes 
after things in a very, very, serious 
way and I am very happy to second the 
nomination of Mr. Louis Mason Jr 


The Chair: 

Are there any other nomina¬ 
tions? 


Mr. Shields: 

Mr. Chairman, I move that the 
nominations he closed. 

Which motion prevailed. 


The Chair: 

Roll call on the nomination. 

Miss Ballinger Mr. Kamyk 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Lynch 

Mr. DePasquale Mr. Michaels 

Mr. Fagan Mr. Shields 

Ayes 8. Noes none. 

(Mr. Mason not voting.) 


The Chair: 

Will Mr. Mason approach the 
bench to be sworn in. 


Judge Weir: 

Ladies and gentlemen, Louis 
Mason, Jr. has been an acquaintance of 
mine for many years. I first knew Lou 
in the Civic Unity Council, and then as 
Executive Director of the Commission 
on Human Relations. I have known Lou 
to always be fair and upright in his 
dealings in human service. 

I am pleased at this time to adminis¬ 
ter the oath of office of the President 
of the City Council of Pittsburgh, to 


And Mr. Mason signed the oath of of¬ 
fice. 


The Chair: 

Ladies and gentlemen, members of 
Council, may I present the President of 
Council, Louis Mason, Jr. 


Mr. Mason: 

Thank you, Judge Weir. 

As all of you know, I have served as 
President of City Council from Decem¬ 
ber to December, finishing out the term 
of the dearly beloved former President 
of City Council, John Francis Couna- 
han, who served for approximately three 
years. 

I don’t know, ladies and gentlemen, 
where in the world you could find eight 

(8) more dedicated people such as I 
have had the privilege of working with. 
None, not one, has ever refused to un¬ 
dertake any assignment that I would 
ask them to undertake, either as a 
Councilman or as the President of City 
Council. 

They know that I am a kind of ner¬ 
vous fellow and I don’t think that there 
has been one City Councilman, with 
whom I have worked this past year, who 
has not gone out of his way to be avail¬ 
able to me at all times and who has al¬ 
ways showed respect for me. 

You bring people together out of nine 

(9) different dispositions and try to ar¬ 
rive at what is best for the City and its 
people and sometimes, quite expressly, 
you have got “hell” on your hands. But 
this means of communication is truly 
Important because if we can't win cases 
within the confines of City Council, 
how then, can we go to the people out 
there in the community. We find this 
very healthy and whatever information 
is gained will be of benefit to the total 
community. Each of us is commended 
to this and each of us shall do our best. 

And now, I would like to introduce 
to you the Members of Council, Miss 
Amy Ballinger, Chairman of our Com¬ 
mittee on Services and Surveys; Mr. 
Richard Caliguiri, Chairman of our 
Committee on Parks and Recreation; 
Mr. Eugene DePasquale, our now Chair¬ 
man of Public Works; Mr. Thomas Fa¬ 
gan, Chairman of the C omm ittee on 
Public Safety; Mr. Walter Kamyk, Chair¬ 
man of the Committee on Lands and 
Buildings; Mr. John Lynch, Chairman 
of the Water Committee; Mr. Edgar Mi¬ 
chaels, Chairman of the Finance Com¬ 
mittee, Mr. George Shields, Chairman of 
Planning and Redevelopment. 


Mr. Mason: 

I wish at this time to announce 
that there will be a legislative meeting 
of Council on Wednesday, January 5, 
1972, at 10:00 o’clock, A.M. 

Now, our newly elected officials will 
Introduce members of their families and 
friends. 

Our first newly elected Councilwoman, 
Miss Amy Ballinger. 

Miss Ballinger: 

Judge Weir, Mayor Flaherty, Members 
of City Council, members of my family 
and friends: 

“They say Citizenship is the way to 
Heaven, but I must say that my first 
year in City Council has almost been 
like the way to hell. However, it has 
been a challenge, a great experience in 
City Government for which I am most 
grateful. 

It reminded me of the couple who had 
married each of a different political par¬ 
ty, and when she was asked how she was 
getting along in view of this difference, 
she replied “it didn’t bother her, as she 
was busy launching a third party.” 
While I am not about to launch a third 
party, (too late In life) but I believe 
we are relying on more women to get be¬ 
hind the wheels of government and put 
tho brakes on. Women will act because 
they are emotionally Involved. I don’t 
say women are more intelligent, more 
rational, or any of that nonsense, but 
women are 53% of the electorate and 
must use their united political powers 
to achieve the goals that matter to all 
of us, such as housing, unemployment, 
pollution and just plain better govern¬ 
ment. When I look at the record of the 
male species (and I say this humbly), I 
don’t see how women could do much 
worse. 

Nevertheless, the goal for myself, and 
I feel quite sure for all members of City 
Council, is to bring harmony to the City 
and to strengthen the ties betwen all 
the governing bodies, the Department 
Heads, and the Mayor to make this the 
greatest City ever. I believe the budget 
address of last Friday, December 31, 


6 




1971, clearly indicates how Council feels 
and what it can and will do with the 
cooperation of all concerned. 

There are lots of things in 1971 we 
all wish we could change, but this is a 
New Year and we hope to make it a 
better one. I shall meet the challenge 
and the faith that the electorate has put 
in me. 

May I thank all who voted for me on 
the Democratic Ticket and also those 
who voted for me on the Republican 
Ticket. May I wish you and yours a 
very happy and prosperous New Year. 

Thank you.” 

Introduction of her family. 

The Chair: 

Thank you, Miss Ballinger. 

Mr. Richard Caliguiri! 

Before Mr. Caliguiri speaks, I would 
like to acknowledge the presence of His 
Honor, the Mayor of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh, Mayor Peter Flaherty and Com¬ 
missioner Foerster. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

Reverend Carter, Father Bosco, 
Mayor Flaherty, Judge Weir and Friends: 

It has been an interesting year for me 
but I might add that I don’t have the 
same problem as Amy Ballinger has. 

I know when I first got on Council 
last year, I remember going to all of the 
rooms and they were locked and I asked 
the City Clerk why all the doors were 
locked. I wanted to know what I was 
to do and what goes on. He gathered 
some books and papers and walked with 
me down the hall and we came to one 
door and he said, “Remember, anything 
that goes on in this room, you leave it 
here, O. K.” I said “alright” and he 
proceeded to unlock the door and it was 
the Men’s Room. So, believe it or not, 
there are a lot of decisions made in the 
Men’s Room. 

But I certainly have enjoyed this year, 
moving about and meeting many, many 
new people and it humbles me to the 
point that there is really never enough 
that any one person can do for people 


in the Cities of these United States. The 
cities are so important to the states as 
is all of the states that make up our 
government and not only does the elect¬ 
ed officials have to hold the cities to¬ 
gether, but we are the ones that the 
people out there look to and this, of 
course, is very important to the City of 
Pittsburgh. 

We elected officials cannot do this 
alone. We cannot stand alone. What¬ 
ever is accomplished must be accom¬ 
plished together. I have accepted this 
responsibility today and I certainly 
want to share it with all of you because 
I, not for one minute, want to stand 
alone and try to do this Job. It has to 
be done together and purely for the 
people of the City of Pittsburgh, your 
City, and in that vein you, the people, 
are what is important. You have got to 
tell us what is needed in the communi¬ 
ties, what you want to do and what 
you want us to do. 

In these next four years that you have 
given me, I want to come out into the 
communities and visit with you if I can. 
I hope too, that you will be a part of 
the community meetings that will be 
taking place in your neighborhoods. Get 
moving in your neighborhoods, get in¬ 
volved in your community and let’s work 
together. 

Thank you. 

Introduction of his family. 

The Chair: 

I would like to acknowledge the 
presence of Chancellor Posvor from the 
University of Pittsburgh who is here 
with us. Also, Senator Mazzei and bis 
wife 

Now, Mr. Eugene DePasquale. 

Mr. DePasquale: 

Thank you, Mr. Mason, 

Father Bosco, Reverend Carter, Mayor 
Flaherty, Honorable Judge Weir and 
Friends: 

I am going to do this a little bit dif¬ 
ferent. I am going to introduce my fam¬ 
ily first and get that out of the way be¬ 
cause that will take quite a while.

Introduction of his family. 

I was called one morning by one of 
the Radio Stations that wanted to 
know whether or not I was pro-Flaherty 
or anti-Flaherty and of course you know 
what I did. 

But seriously, I just want to say that 
I am happy to serve the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh and I hope to serve it well and I 
will do all within my power to do so. 

I want to thank my many friends who 
supported me, my Campaign Manager 
and all who worked for me. 

Thank you. 

The Chair: 

I see standing by the door Sen¬ 
ator Thomas Lamb. Also Mr. Eric 
Springer and his wife and Mr. John Mc- 
Grady, Controller for the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh. 

Now, Mr. Walter Kamyk. 

Mr. Kamyk: 

Mr. President, Most Reverend 
Bosco, the Very Reverend Canon Carter, 
Clergy, Judge Weir and all elected offi¬ 
cials: 

You know, I am going to start this 
way. I become very irritated, and I irri¬ 
tate easily, when I hear people refer to 
me as a part-time Councilman because 
God knows it is not so. I am not only 
a full-time Councilman but I will tell 
you a little story that happened to me 
one morning after working very hard on 
the budget. 

One night I went to bed because I was 
so tired and I thought I would get a 
good night’s rest but instead I turned 
and tossed and didn’t sleep very well. 
The next morning I said to my dear 
wife, “I dreamed about the budget all 
night and this morning I feel very 
tired.” 

So ladies and gentlemen, this is not a 
part-time job if you really want to do 
your best. You have to put a lot of 
time into it and you have to do a lot 
of work and I do both. 


I want to thank all for supporting me 
in the last election, for the help you 
have extended to me in becoming a 
Councilman for the City of Pittsburgh 
for another four (4) years. I live in the 
City of Pittsburgh and I want to do all 
that I can for the good of the City. 

I would like also to bring back to 
Pittsburgh the renaissance further, not 
only in the neighborhoods but to the 
people and I would like to promote love 
among all of us, regardless of his or her 
ethnic background and we must realize 
this. 

So ladies and gentlemen, I ask all of 
you to pray for me and the rest of us, 
including the Mayor so that we can do 
a good job for the City of Pittsburgh. 

Thank you. 

Introduction of his family. 

The Chair: 

Father Bosko will now give the 
closing prayer. 

Father Bosco. 

Father Bosco: 

“Almighty God, Father of us 
all, we are all your servants. Many of us 
in positions of public office and trust 
seek to serve you by serving others. 
Grant that we may do so without too 
much stumbling over one another or 
ourselves. 

Let our genuine differences be voiced 
with honesty and integrity and resolved 
with an unselfish concern for those 
whom we serve. 

Our differences should not separate 
us for when we remove the labels with 
which we have been clothed ourselves— 
—• Democrat — Republican — old — 
young — Black — White — Catholic — 
Protestant — Jew—pro-sky bus—or anti- 
skybus we find that we are all your 
children, brothers and sisters of one hu¬ 
man family. Help us and these newly 
elected officials upon whom we ask 
your blessing to remember that simple 
fact. You are our Co mm on Father—we 
are all your children—we are one.” 

And on motion of Mr. Lynch, 

Council Adjourned.

CITY OF PITTSBURGH 
Pete Flaherty, Mayor 

December 31, 1971 

President and Members of Council 
510 City-County Building 
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15219 

Subject: Bill No. 3074, dated 
December 30, 1971 
1972 Appropriation 
Ordinance 

Gentlemen and Madam: 

I am returning to you the at¬ 
tached Bill No. 3074 dated December 30, 
1971 entitled: 

“AN ORDINANCE—Making appropria¬ 
tions to pay the expenses of conducting 
the public business of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh and for meeting the debt charges 
thereof for the fiscal year, beginning 
January 1, 1972.” 

I have signed and approved the Ordi¬ 
nance except for the following items 
which I disapprove and veto: 

Page Six—Office of Civil Defense 

Code 

Account 

1038 Salaries, Regular Employees, 
Miscellaneous Services, 

Supplies, and Equipment--$17,500 

This office has been eliminated be¬ 
cause the functions performed by it are 
more properly performed on other levels 
of government and it is an unnecessary 
burden on the taxpayers of this City. 

Page 29 

Refunds, Reserves, Emergency Salaries 
and Wages and Contingent Funds.

Accounts 

42-1 Contingent Fund—

42-2 Contingent Fund— 

Public Works_ 500,000 

42-3 Contingent Fund— 

Parks & Recreation_ 200,000 


I disapprove of these three contingent 
funds because they result from under- 
appropriating Salary accounts in these 
departments.

80 Regional Industrial Cor¬ 
poration of Pittsburgh--$10,000 


84 Educational TV 

Station WQED_12,000 

87 Three Rivers Arts 

Festival _ 8,500 

97 Federation of War 

Veterans Society_ 2,500 


I disapprove of these grants on the 
grounds that while these may be worthy 
enterprises for voluntary contributions, 
private grants and foundation grants, I 
cannot use public tax funds to support 
such institutions to the detriment of our 
overburdened City taxpayers. 

I have approved of all tax ordinances 
submitted by City (Council. 

This includes a real estate tax of 63 
mills on land and 26 mills on build¬ 
ings. 

No other tax rates were changed in 
the Council budget for 1972. Effective 
January 1, 1972 all other taxes will 
continue in full force and effect at the 
1971 rates. 

In the budget statement of Council 
presented to the public on December 30 
the people were promised a 25 % tax 
refund on the earned income taxes paid 
during 1971. 

As Council knows there is no legal or 
practical way of making such tax re¬ 
funds. 

To the extent that the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh would reduce earned income tax 


below the present one per cent the out¬ 
side municipalities would largely be the 
real beneficiaries from those City resi¬ 
dents working outside the City. There¬ 
fore, a large number of Pittsburgh tax¬ 
payers would not have benefitted from 
a reduction of the earned income tax. 

Council had the power to decrease tax 
rates beyond the decrease proposed by 
the Mayor. It chose not to do so. 

Council has not passed refund legisla¬ 
tion in the 1972 budget and has no 
power to do so. 

If Council did pass any legislation to 
refund taxes and for any reason failed 
to submit it I disapprove it for the 
reasons stated, and veto it. 

Instead of a refund I have proposed 
and you have approved of a real estate 
tax decrease of two mills on land and 
one mill on buildings. This is the largest 
real estate tax decrease in forty years 
in the City of Pittsburgh. 

I believe this was the fairest tax re¬ 
duction and it has been properly en¬ 
acted and the greatest n um ber of our 
citizens will benefit from the real estate 
decrease. 

Respectfully, 

PETE FLAHERTY, 

Mayor 

Which was read, received and filed. 

Also, 

Bill No. 3074. An Ordinance en¬ 
titled, “An Ordinance making appropria¬ 
tions to pay the expenses of conducting 
the public business of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh and for meeting the debt charges 
thereof for the fiscal year, beginning 
January 1, 1972.° 

Which was read. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. Chairman, Bill No. 3074 of 
1971 has been resubmitted so that 
Councail can again override the Mayor’s 
veto of portions of it. We have posted 
notices, as required by law, in the news¬ 
papers. I believe in the "shirt and 
suspenders” policy and that we here in 


10 








Council must override that veto, which 
I now make in the form of a motion. 

Mr. Lynch: 

Second the motion. 


The Chair: 

All those wishing to override the 
Mayor’s veto on a portion of Bill No. 
3074 of 1971, will vote “Aye” and. thoise 
opposed will vote “No.” 

And the roll being called, the ayes and 
noes were tajcen, agreeably to law, and 
were: 

Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger 

Mr. Caliguiri 

Mr. DePasquale 

Mr. Fagan 

Mr. Kamyk 

Ayes 9. Noes none. 

And there being two-thirds of the 
votes of Council in the affirmative, the 
objections and veto of a portion of Bill 
No. 3137 of 1971 by the Mayor was over¬ 
riden. 


Also, 

No. 3138. 

CITY OF PITTSBURGH 
Pete Flaherty, Mayor 

December 31, 1971 

President and Members of City Council 
510 City-County Building 
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15219 

Subject: Bill No. 3075, dated 
December 30, 1971 
1972 Salary Ordinance 

Gentlemen and Madam: 

Attached to this letter is Bill 
No. 3075 dated December 32, 1971, en¬ 
titled, “AN ORDINANCE Fixing the 
number of officers and employees of all 
departments of the City of Pittsburgh, 
and the rate of compensation thereof.” 

I have approved of the Ordinance 
except for the following line item set 


forth on page 12, Section 211 of said Bill 
which I hereby veto: 

“Five Truck Driver Parking Meter 

Collectors-$10,070 each per annum” 

In the past parking meter collections 
were performed by five Parking Meter 
Collectors at $6,758 or $7,391. Since the 
Parking Meter Collector jobs proposed 
in my budget were not included in the 
Salary Ordinance proposed by Council, 
the duties of those jobs will be reas¬ 
signed or be performed by another 
agency on an economically feasible basis. 

For these reasons I hereby disapprove 
and veto the same. 

Respectfully, 

PETE FLAHERTY, 

PF:fkn 

Which was read, received and filed. 


Also, 

Bill No. 3075. An Ordinance en¬ 
titled, “An Ordinance fixing the number 
of officers and employees of all depart¬ 
ments of the City of Pittsburgh, and 
the rate of compensation thereof.” 

Which was read. 


Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. Chairman, during the Fi¬ 
nance Committee hearings, it was deter¬ 
mined the job classification for this 
description was Truck Driver. In fact, 
they do drive trucks and secondly, they 
are meter collectors. Therefore, we be¬ 
lieve the title of the job “Parking Meter 
Collector,” does not properly identify 
that job. For that reason, I move we 
override the veto with respect to that 
portion of Bill No. 3075 of 1971. 

Mir. Lynch:

As you know, this is a new

the following committee chairmen for 
this Council. 

Committee on Finance 
Mr. John P. Lynch 

Committee on Public Works 
Mr. Thomas L. Fagan 

Committee on Parks, Recreation 
and Libraries 
Mr. Richard S. Caliguiri 

Committee on Water 
Mr. Eugene P. DePasquale

and Redevelopment 
Mr. George W. Shields 

Committee on Lands and Buildings 
Mr. Walter T. Kamyk 

Committee on Public Service 
and Surveys 
Miss Amy Ballinger 

Committee on Publio Safety 
Mr. Edgar W. Michaels 

Is there any other business? 

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. Chairman, as you have in¬ 
dicated, I am going to replace Mr, 
Michaels as Finance Chairman and. I 
would like to take this opportunity to 
express my thanks to Mr. Michaels for 
the superlative job he has done over the 
past two years, in his work with the 
budget and in his work conducted in 
the affairs of the City with regards to 
finance. 

I am sorry that he finds it necessary 
not to continue in this post and I am 
sure that Council will be poorer for the 
absence of the firm and excellent lead¬ 
ership that he has provided. I hope that 
I can count on him in the years ahead 
for all of his help and assistance. I 
want to also express my personal grati¬ 
tude to him for a job very well done. 

The Chair: 

Mr. Lynch, I am sure that you 
express the sentiments of this Council- 
manic body. 


16 




Mr. Michaels: 

Thank you, Mr. Lynch and I 
assure you of my cooperation. 

Mr. Shields: 

Mr. Chairman, I would like to 
add my thinking along with that of Mr. 
Lynch and say that the job that has 
been done by Mr. Michaels has been a 
very fine job. I can’t help but think 
that it could not have been done any 
better than it was. 

I would like to indicate to the public 
and to the press that the job of Finan¬ 
cial Chairman of City Council is a terri¬ 
fic job. It is indicative of the problems 
of the City and the kind of effort that 
must go into doing the job of which 
the dedicated members of Council are 
all a part of. I know that we worked 
many, many hours, all of us. I would 
just like to add my personal congratu¬ 
lations and my personal thanks for a 
job that was done for the City. 

I would hopefully think that some¬ 


time, somehow, somewhere the rest of 
the City will thank him too. 

The Chair: 

I would hope so, Mr. Shields. I 
think he has received public recogni¬ 
tion of renown through the daily press 
and through the electronic media. He 
did a good job as you have stated and 
I am sure all of the members of Coun¬ 
cil feel the same way, knowing the tre¬ 
mendous amount of work we did be¬ 
tween December 6th and the time we 
presented the Mayor with the budget. 

Mr. Caliguiri moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, December 27, 1971; Friday, De¬ 
cember 31, 1971; Monday, January 3, 
1972 and Wednesday, January 6, 1972, 
be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. Lynch, 

Council adjourned.

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. President, I would like to 
introduce an additional communication 
from the Law Department to be at¬ 
tached to Bill No. 9, Series 1972. 

CITY OF PITTSBURGH 
Pennsylvania 

January 14, 1972 

Honorable President and Members 

City Council 

CITY OF PITTSBURGH 

Dear President and Members: 

On January 5, 1972, the then Chair¬ 
man of the Finance Committee, Edward 
W. Michaels, requested the Law Depart¬ 
ment to provide “legal information 
with respect to the Councilmanic budg¬ 
etary matter of its intent to make a re¬ 
fund on the 1971 Earned Income Tax 
and its proper place in the Budget." 

In response to such request the Law 
Department has examined the Second 
Class City Charter Act (53 P.S. 1122101 
et seq.); the provisions of Act 511 (53 
P.S. ff6851 et seq.) pursuant to which 
the City of Pittsburgh levies the Earned 
Income Tax; the Constitution of the 
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; Chap¬ 
ter 39 Volume 15 of McQuillin Munici¬ 
pal Corporations; 72 P.S. If5566b dealing 


with the subject of refunds of taxes by 
municipal corporations, and the applic¬ 
able Pennsylvania appellate court au¬ 
thority. 

On the basis of such examination it 
is clear to this Office that any legisla¬ 
tion purporting to authorize the Tefund 
of any portion of 1971 Earned Income 
Tax levy must be based upon an express 
grant of power from the State Legisla¬ 
ture. Hotel Casey Co. v. Ross, 343 Pa. 
573 (1942); Harbold v. City of Reading, 
355 Pa. 253 (1947); Georgia’s Twp. v. 
Union Trust Co., 293 Pa. 364 (1928); 

Cummings et al. v. Scranton et al.. Ap¬ 
pellants, 348 Pa. 538 (1944); Mastran- 
gelo v. Buckley, 433 Pa. 352 (1969). 

Significantly the Constitution of the 
Commonwealth provides in Article III, 
Section 32, that 

“Section 32 . . . the General As¬ 
sembly shall not pass any local or 
special law: 

(5) Remitting fines, penalties and 
forfeitures, or refunding moneys le¬ 
gally paid into the treasury." 

(Bold face added) 

Consistent with the foreging the 
Pennsylvania Legislature has enacted a 
general law permitting political subdi¬ 
visions to refund money which has 
been illegally collected or to which the 
subdivision was not legally entitled. 

Similarly, Article VIII, Section 3 of 
the Constitution of the Commonwealth 
of Pennsylvania provides, in part, as 
follows: 

“Section 3. Taxation laws may 
grant exemptions or rebates to resi¬ 
dents, or estates of residents, of other 
States which grant silimar exemptions 
or rebates to residents, or estates of 
residents, of Pennsylvania." 

Again, legislation has been enacted 
authorizing rebates on a reciprocating 
basis. 

Finally, it is interesting to note that 
Act 511 provides that if the aggregate 
revenues from taxes levied and collected 
under the authority of said Act 511 ex¬ 
ceed the limitations imposed by the Act 
(12 Mills times Market Value), the po¬ 
litical subdivision shall not expend 




such excess during such year but shall 
deposit the same in a separate account 
for expenditure the following year. 

From the foregoing it is quite appar¬ 
ent that the Legislature is (a) clearly 
cognizant of the need to express refund 
provisions with specificity and (b) has 
failed to express itself on the subject 
of refunding taxes validly collected un¬ 
der Act 511. 

As was cogently stated by the Su¬ 
preme Court of Pennsylvania in Cum¬ 
min g. Q et al v. Scranton et al, Appel¬ 
ant, 348 Pa. 538 (1944), when denying 
Council the power to appropriate sur¬ 
plus funds for salary increases after 
the annual appropriation ordinance had 
been enacted: 

“Irregularities in form and proce¬ 
dure might readily be corrected. Ab¬ 
sence of power to act is fatal.” 

Accordingly, it is the opinion of the 
Law Department that your Honorable 
Body lacks the power to make a 25% re¬ 
fund from the amount of Earned In¬ 
come paid to the City in 1971, 

Very truly yours, 

RALPH LYNCH, JR. 

City Solicitor 

RL/h 

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. President, after conferring 
with the majority of my colleagues on 
Council, I believe it is the pleasure of 
Council to reconsider this bill in light 
of the legal opinion rendered by the 
Law Department and I move this bill be 
recommitted to the Committee on Fi¬ 
nance. 


Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I discussed this 
with my colleague, Mr. Lynch, and I am 
not trying in any way to take from 
what I know are the grievious responsi¬ 
bilities of the Finance Committee but 
since I entered the legislation initially, 
I would like to make this comment. 

The problem we face now is no dif¬ 
ferent really than it was when the bill 
was introduced. The question is, does 


the City Council have a responsibility 
to the balanced budget and how should 
it react as it sees a cash surplus built 
up in the City coffers that is taken out 
of the pockets of the individual tax¬ 
payers. It becomes our responsibility, 
I think, to react to this. 

If, in fact, it is proven that the opin¬ 
ion of the Law Department Is correct, 
as I understand it, that it is the respon¬ 
sibility for this Council to go to the 
General Assembly for proper legislation, 
then it ought to properly do so or con¬ 
sider what other steps it may take in 
the future to prevent this cash accu¬ 
mulation. 

The weakness faced in City govern¬ 
ment is that the Mayor proposes his 
program for the ensuing year and 
Council then must react to it as it 
sees fit. However, it is unable at that 
time to develop the intent of the ad¬ 
ministration. It is only after the year 
is in that Council can honestly assess 
the matter and see whether the pro¬ 
gram was carried out as best it could 
be or whether there was an intent on the 
part of the administration to over-state 
its expenditures so it would have the 
political advantage to say it was a well- 
run ship. 

In the case here, we saw an accumu¬ 
lation of cash developing Over a two- 
year period that we could presume 
would extend Itself into year number 
three. In fact, in this case, where the 
administration has asked for 17 per 
cent more expenditures in 1972, the 
question is, can it perform at a 17 per 
cent greater ratio than in the past year. 
There is no hiring policy, no extended 
programming, and therefore no justifi¬ 
cation for this Council to presume an 
accelerated rate of providing city serv¬ 
ices. This problem will still have to be 
faced by City Council regardless of what 
we do with this present refund. I think 
it is to this matter we must address our¬ 
selves. 


Mr. Lynch: 

I would like to make it clear to 
Mr. Michaels that action of Council to 
recommit this bill in no way takes is¬ 
sue with his fundamental position, nor 
should It prejudice his position, nor 


24 



should it be construed as a commit¬ 
ment on the part of Council. We in¬ 
troduced an issue, it passed Council; 
now we have a legal opinion that seems 
to me, and it seemed to me in conver¬ 
sation with my colleagues, that it is 
weighty enough to recommit this to 
Council to further deliberate on the 
matter. I would like my motion not to 
be construed as contrary to Mr. Mi¬ 
chael's position. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Michaels: 

And I concur with the recom- 
mital, but I thought it was the proper 
time to make that statement. 

Mr. Mason: 

In response to Mr. Michael's 
request, we received the legal ruling 
only this morning, about 9:30 a.m. and 
it was agreed we would recommit it. It 
is quite proper, and Mr. Michael's re¬ 
marks are in order, but more appropri¬ 
ately a decision will be made after re¬ 
marks on Wednesday when the bill is 
taken up for further discussion.

Mr. Lynch moved 

The adoption of the resolution. 

Which motion prevaUed. 

The Chair: 

I have just finished a private 
conference which could be of major im¬ 
portance, based on my experience of 
four and one-half years here. 

I think each of us has a real respon¬ 
sibility as Chairman of the respective 
committees to examine the budget with 
great care between now and Wednesday 
morning. We have of course, and it is 
not unusual, uncovered a number of ty¬ 
pographical errors, as well as certain 
areas of phraseology for the purposes of 
interpretation by this body for the 
forthcoming year. 

Please do not make light of this. It is 
extremely important, for once we have 
passed this we are forever bound by the 
year of 1972 by what is contained in the 
final analysis of the budget. 

So, I am asking each of you who head 
committees to go over the budget with a 
fine tooth comb to uncover any other 
typographical errors, if there are any, or 
if there are any other interpretations of 
certain phrases etc., that would be in- 


39 




flexible to employees and the depart¬ 
ments as we operate. 

Please, because there is no need of us 
waking up in June to find out there has 
been a misinterpretation when we know 
that we have the responsibility to do it 
between now and Wednesday. 

Thank you very much 


Mr. Lynch moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, January 17, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed.

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 
Mr. Lynch presented 

Bill No. 122. City Council does 
hereby direct that the City Solicitor pre¬ 
pare a petition in mandamus for pre¬ 
sentation to the Court of Common Pleas 
requiring the Mayor of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh, Peter F. Flaherty, to allow imme¬ 
diate access to the records of the city 
pertaining to the Capital Budget and/or 
any other records which Council may re¬ 
quire, and recognizing Mr. Edward Al¬ 
bert, newly appointed Assistant Budget 
Controller Engineering Program, of the 
Council of the City of Pittsburgh as duly 
authorized agent of the Council for this 
purpose. 

Your immediate attention to this re¬ 
quest will be required. This petition 
must be prepared for submission no la¬ 
ter than February 10, 1972. 


In this case we are asking what is 
implicitly a situation that involves a 
conflict of interest. You know, we are 
putting ourselves in a position to be ac¬ 
cused of playing politics rather than 
being concerned about the job for which 
we are responsible. Obviously, an em¬ 
ployee who is appointed by the Mayor to 
be asked to prepare a suit against the 
Mayor of the City of Pittsburgh, is 
going to be placed twice in a position 
of conflict of interest. 

Rather than ask it and directing our 
purposes to the appointed employee, I 
would heartedly recommend that we 
move hastily to appoint a legal consult¬ 
ant to prepare the necessary legislation 
and the necessary legal papers for prop¬ 
er presentation before the Court so that 
we can have action. I don’t see how we 
can expect, first of all, a man in his po¬ 
sition to move ahead in this situation. 
The obvious answer would be no, we 
would only be wasting time. We want 
a yes answer. We want to go ahead and 
move forward and I recommend that 
rather than move on this Resolution, we 
act more directly at the core of the 
problem by moving to have an inde¬ 
pendent, outside attorney appointed by 
Council to serve the purposes for which 
Council feels that it requires. We want 
information. Let’s move ahead without 
involving ourselves in matters that axe 
irrelevant to the problem. 

We are going to get involved in a time 
consuming thing, a request, a “no” an¬ 
swer, and we are going to have to move 
ahead anyway. 

Mr. Lynch: 


Which was read. 

Mr. Shields: 

Mr. President, I want to speak 
in opposition to this resolution. 

I would like first of all to say that I 
am in firm agreement with the purpose 


In response to Mr. Shields, I 
would like to point out that I consulted 
with the City Solicitor, Mr. Lynch, and 
the fact of the matter is City Council, 
according to Mr. Lynch, is not entitled 
to employ outside counsel. We are not 
empowered to employ any other coun¬ 
sel. Under the City Charter Act for the 


57 



City of Pittsburgh, the City Solicitor is 
our lawyer, with no choice, nor does he, 
Anybody to act on behalf of City Coun¬ 
cil must be the City Solicitor. So, there¬ 
fore, if we want to ask the Mayor to 
open his records legally to us, nobody 
can tell him to contact the City. The 
attorney for the City is the City Solicitor 
under the City Charter Act. 

There are all sorts of legal precedences 
cited as in the case of Scranton and 
other cities in the United States in 
which the Courts have absolutely re¬ 
fused to allow Councils to hire their 
own legal counsel. 

Therefore, I submit that the only re¬ 
course left open to Council is to request 
Solicitor Lynch to prepare this manda¬ 
mus, which is in effect, against his em¬ 
ployer. Under the Charter Act, he rep¬ 
resents us both. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I subscribe that 
Mr. Lynch is not an employee of City 
Council nor an employee of the Mayor 
of the City of Pittsburgh, but an em¬ 
ployee of the citizens of the City of 
Pittsburgh and must act in the best 
ways in that he can in that capacity. 
The fact that the legislation is made by 
the Mayor is irrevelant to the problem 
as I see it, for which the purpose is I 
assure you, for appointing a qualified 
attorney. 

He represents all of us and to ask 
him to perform on our behalf, X believe 
he is of the responsibility to do so. 

Mr. Lynch moved 

The adoption of the resolution. 

And the roll being called, the ayes and 
noes were taken, agreeably to law, and 
were: 


Ayes:— 


Mr. DePasquale 

Mr. Lynch

Mr. Michaels

The Chair presented 

Bill No. 123. The members of 
the Council of the City of Pittsburgh 
were saddened to learn of the unexpect¬ 
ed and untimely death on Friday, Feb¬ 
ruary 4, 1972, of the Honorable Malcolm 
Hay, Judge in the Orphans Division of 
Common Pleas Court of Allegheny 
County. 

Judge Hay had a varied public life as 
a civic leader, soldier and jurist. As a 
soldier, he was a member of the Active 
Army Reserve and Pennsylvania National 
Guard; was appointed adjutant general 
in 1969 by Governor David L. Lawrence; 
and later attained the rank of major 
general. 

While president of the Greater Pitts¬ 
burgh Chamber of Commerce in 1963, 
Judge Hay was elected County Treas¬ 
urer as a Democrat; and in 1967 he won 
the nomination of both parties for a 
judgeship; and all his time was spent in 
the Orphans Division. 

WHEREAS, Judge Hay was an officer 
of numerous civic, veteran, health-re¬ 
lated and religious associations; and 

WHEREAS, He lived a full, generous, 
humble Christian life of faith and love. 

THEREFORE, The Mayor and the mem¬ 
bers of the Council of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh wish to express their sincere sym¬ 
pathy and condolences to the family of 
Judge Malcolm Hay, and that this reso¬ 
lution be spread upon the records of

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. President, I cannot resist 
observing for the record that we have 
reached a new record, I think, with the 
fewest number of bills ever to be pre¬ 
sented to the Finance Committee and I 
would like to inquire from the Mayor 
as to why we have such a small number 
of bills. 

I would like to point out, also, for the 
record, we have not received a satisfac¬ 
tory answer from the City Solicitor with 
information on our request for manda¬ 
mus proceedings and I would like to ex¬ 
press my disappointment that the So¬ 
licitor’s Office would so summarily dis¬ 
miss instructions from this Council, and 
I will have more to say at a future date. 

Mr. Mason: 

Is it your suggestion that the 
correspondence asking for the ruling 
from the City Solicitor and his subse¬ 
quent reply be entered into these pro¬ 
ceedings? 

Mr. Lynch: 

Yes, and I will move that be 
entered into the record. 


Mr. DiNardo: 

The reply from City Solicitor 
Lynch was entered into the record of 
Council at the Legislative Session on 
Monday, January 17, 1972. (Meeting 
No. 4.) 

Mr. Lynch moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, February 7, 1972, be approved. 

And on motion of Mr. Lynch, 

Council adjourned.

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. Chairman, I move the adop¬ 
tion of the resolution. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Miss Ballinger: 

King Peter Flaherty rules the 
City of Pittsburgh like an ancient mon¬ 
arch. He is the oldest young man in his¬ 
tory. And the time has now come for 
King Peter to put up or shut up. 

He says he has saved us lots of money. 
But actually he has put us on the skids 
by withholding some very vital city 
services. 

Now it is time for him to come up 
with some modem ideas to old time 
problems, instead of squawling that 
we’re not going to do this, and we’re not 
going to do that. He really ought to 
get with it. It’s time for the tyrant, 
Flaherty, to come up with some pro¬ 
posals we will do. Now! 

He opposes skybus. But the tired mon¬ 
arch neglects to tell his poor little sub¬ 
jects what he proposes instead. He talks 
about steel wheels and steel rails and 
upgrading existing facilities. Why these 
facilities are based on a principle 144 
years old. Steel wheels and steel rails 
were outmoded before Pittsburgh was in¬ 
corporated as a city. 

President Nixon has traveled ten 
thousand miles to talk over our prob¬ 
lems with the Chinese but Peter Flaher¬ 
ty won’t even talk to Pittsburgh’s elect¬ 
ed councilmen and he won’t even walk 
across the street to try to solve our dif¬ 
ferences on rapid transit. 

Our municipal monarch has destroyed 
the morale in the ranks of both police 
and firemen. Our taxes have never been 
higher but the taxpayers were never 
more worried about their safety. 

Our streets are loaded with potholes 
Garbage collection is a constant irrita¬ 


tion. Many City jobs remain unfilled. 
Many good men have been fired. Sur¬ 
vivors have been turned into malcon¬ 
tents, filled with fear. 

It is time for the dictatorship in City 
Hall to come to an end. We have had 
?, reign of terror and rule by fear. And 
it must come to an end if the city is to 
survive. 

Our tyrant has delegated much too 
much power to his prime minister (or 
would it be more accurate to call him 
the royal hatchetman?). 

He has alienated a lot of dedicated 
civic leaders, in the Zoological Society, 
the Allegheny Conference, the Regional 
Industrial Development Conference, the 
Southwest Regional Planning, not to 
mention a lot of fellow Democrats who 
never deserved to be treated like traitors. 

He has injured feelings. He has 
frightened and fired more public em¬ 
ployees than any other mayor in his own 
lifetime. 

King Peter owes us less fear, less 
rhetoric and more action. 

The Rennaissance is over. 

King Peter has killed it. 

Mr. Michaels moved 

That Mr. Caliguiri, Mr. Fagan 
and Mr. Shields be excused for absence 
from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Michaels moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, February 14, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. Lynch, 

Council adjourned.

The Chair: 

Mr. City Clerk, do we have a 
paper from Mr. Boulden for the Chair¬ 
man of Finance concerning the sus¬ 
pended program in Model Cities? 


76 



Mr. DiNardo: 

No, I don’t have it* He prom¬ 
ised to have it here but he doesn’t. 

The Chair: 

Mr. City Clerk, can we make a 
motion in terms of this particular pa¬ 
per? 

Mr. DiNardo: 

You have to have a paper be¬ 
fore you to make a motion. 

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. Mulvihill, is that correct? 
Will you come forward? 

Mr. Mulvihill: 

Yes, you must have a paper. 
But if you are doing what I think you 
are, the problem has been taken care of. 
I understand that Mr. Boulden has 
lifted the suspension. 

The Chair: 

What time did he lift the sus¬ 
pension? 

Mr. Mulvihill: 

I’m not sure but I understand 
that it is Mr. Boulden’s intention to 
proceed with that program and if the 
problem is not resolved by HUD, then 
it would be paid for by means of some 
ordinance. 

The Chair: 

We left Mr. Boulden somewhere 
around 10:35 A. M. and he was going to 
have a paper before us for submission 
in order for us to carry on for a mini¬ 
mum period of seven weeks from a spe¬ 
cial grant of $25,000. Am I not correct? 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, Council was pre¬ 
pared to move in the area of a grant 
for $25,000 toward the Model Cities pro¬ 
gram so that the “Meals on Wheels” 


program might continue without inter¬ 
ruption until such time as the prob¬ 
lems that Model Cities is having with 
the Administration is resolved so that 
the people who are so dependent upon 
this can continue to receive it. 

If the information received by Mr. 
Mulvihill is correct, then that program 
will continue without interruption. 
Then obviously there would be no need 
for the legislation. 

So, if this Council does not adjourn this 
afternoon before we are sure of that 
matter, then I would direct that per¬ 
haps Mr. Alberts would make that call 
to Mr, Boulden’s office now and ascer- 
tai whether or not that is for certain. 
Of course, if Mr. Mulvihill will ascer¬ 
tain that certainly, then I have no fur¬ 
ther question. 

Mr. Mulvihill: 

I will be happy to check it for 

you. 

The Chair: 

Thank you, Mr. Mulvihill. 

With that omission Mr. Chairman of 
Finance, we can hold both your papers 
for the introduction of both. We can 
introduce that paper when Mr. Mulvi¬ 
hill comes back with the answer. 

The Chair: 

Before we proceed further, Mr. 
Mulvihill has returned with an ans wer 
for the Chairman of Finance, Mr. 
Lynch. 

Mr. Mulvihill: 

Mr. President, I spoke a moment 
ago with Bob Boulden and he verified 
that it was his decision to carry on with 
the Food Service Program and lift the 
suspension for this purpose. 

If matters cannot be worked out with 
HUD for this purpose, this whole project 
will be dependent upon an agreement 
with Hill House. 

The Chair: 

Does that answer the question 


77 



to the satisfaction of you gentlemen? 
Excepting that we don’t have a paper 
before us and that bothers me. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, if Hill House, 
which is undoubtedly the contracting 
agency and hoping to agree with this, 
but certainly if they are not the con¬ 
tracting agency, we couldn't go ahead 
with the program anyhow. 

It seems to me at this stage of the 
game the matter has to be handled for 
the moment and can be furnished by 
tho Wallace Act Ordinance, depending 
upon action by Council. 

The Chair: 

Thank you very much, Mr. Mi¬ 
chaels. 

Mr. Lynch: 

If I might be allowed, Mr. Pres¬ 
ident, I would like to acknowledge the 
fact that Mr. Michaels, this morning in 
the caucus, presented Council with the 
option that we could stand ready to 
provide the necessary funds to keep this 
program alive for those people who have 
been able to secure it. And, Council at 
this session, is prepared to underwrite 
that program on a temporary basis on 
Mr. Michaels’ suggestion. 

I think that the awareness and the 
action on the part of this Council, gen¬ 
erally, is commendable.

son, you are exempting a position; and

can select an employee via outside the

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

The Chair presents a resolution re 
death of “Doc” Lewis. 

The Chair presented 

Bill No. 245. RESOLVED, that 
the untimely death of E. E. “Doc” Lew¬ 
is, reporter, for Sun Telegraph, Channel 
11, free lanced for several news services. 
Doc, as he was affectionately known, ex¬ 
emplified the honest, fair, dedicated and 
hardworking reporter. His newspaper 
career covered the Common Pleas Court, 
the Political and City Hall, his earthly 
reporting not only did a credit to him, 
but also to his profession. Fellow re¬ 
porters respected and admired him. He 
was a reporter’s reporter. 

THEREFORE, be it 

RESOLVED, that the Mayor and the 


Council of the City of Pittsburgh extend 
to his wife and relatives their deepest 
sympathy in their hour of bereavement. 

Resolution read and adopted. 

The Chair: 

Would like to announce the 
appointment of Mr. Michaels, as 
Chairman of Public Safety, along with 
Mr. Kamyk and Mr. Shields to deal with 
the whole problem of Black Police re¬ 
cruitment with the N.A.A.C.P if that is 
satisfactory. 

Mr. Kamyk has worked as Committee 
Chairman and Mr. Michaels has worked 
with Mr. Shields on the Committee in 
Council. We will have a number of le¬ 
gal questions involved here and I think 
we have a good committee. 

Will the City Clerk kindly advise Mr. 
Stevens as quickly as possible. 

Mr. Michaels: 

I am aware that there are im¬ 
portant times in the City of Pittsburgh 
with respect to some of the things that 
are going on at both the State and Na¬ 
tional level. Mainly, at the National 
level, there is a great deal of talk about 
revenue sharing and I am curious as to 
how this might affect the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh. 

Also, there is before the State House 
a bill with respect to Home Rule and 
obviously, I would be interested in how 
the City of Pittsburgh will be affected 
by the present Home Rule bill being 
considered by the Legislature. I would 
ask then, that our Legislative Liaison 
man who serves in the Mayor’s cabinet 
come before us on Wednesday and tell 
us what input he has made in these two 
areas and describe for us what he feels 
are the strengths and weaknesses of 
those bills. 

The Chair: 

Do you want that as a sugges¬ 
tion or a motion, Mr. Michaels? 

Mr. Michaels: 

A motion, Mr. Chairman. I move 
that the Legislative Liaison officer of 


Mr. Lynch 
Mr. Michaels 
Mr. Shields 
Mr. Mason 
(Pres’t) 


100 



the Mayor’s office be invited to appear 
before City Council at its meeting on 
Wednesday, March 15, 1972. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

Due to the impasse that has 
taken place over the week-end between 
the Zoological Society and the Mayor’s 
office, I would recommend at this time 
that we put together a committee to 
look into this matter. 

I know that there is a court case going 
on right now upstairs to determine 
whether or not there is going to be an 
injunction and until we find out what 
comes of this court case, again, as I 
say I would like to put together a com¬ 
mittee to work on this and find out just 
how City Council can at least get some 
sort of an agreement put together. Ei¬ 
ther Council, or at least try to effect an 
agreement between the Society and the 
Administration so that this impasse can 
be eliminated and they can continue to 
operate the Zoo long before summer is 
upon us and before we open up the 
main Zoo and the Children’s Zoo. 

This is a suggestion, Mr. President. 

The Chair: 

The Chair will take that under 
advisement and talk with Council about 
it, since it is in court at this point. I 
recognize that you don’t want a stale¬ 
mate, Mr. Chairman, of the Department 
of Parks and Recreation but on the oth¬ 
er hand, I want to make sure before I 
move on. 


Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. Chairman, I would concur 
with Mr. Caliguiri but I would point out 


that Mr. Caliguiri is already Chairman 
of that and I think it belongs properly 
within the Chairmanship of the Com¬ 
mittee on Parks and Recreation to con¬ 
cern itself with that problem. 

The Chair: 

In consultation with the President— 


Mr. Lynch: 

No, I think the Chairman has a 
clear authority to move in that direc¬ 
tion and I think that he should do so 
and I think that every man in this 
Council would do whatever he would 
ask with regard to helping us solve this 
problem. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I would like to 
reflect a show of confidence in Mr. Cali¬ 
guiri and I am sure Council will join 
with him, all of us, in helping him to 
resolve this problem and hope that he 
would offer Council his expertise. 

We know his background and experi¬ 
ence in this field and I think we are 
ready to listen to anything that Dick 
has to say. 

* 

Mr. Lynch moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, March 6, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed, 

Mr. Fagan moved 

That Council adjourn in a 
moment of silent prayer in memory of 
the late E. E. (Doc) Lewis, Reporter. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And Council adjourned.

No. 278. WHEREAS, God in his 
infinite wisdom has seen fit to remove 
from our scene a famous and beloved cit¬ 
izen, Harold Joseph (Pie) Traynor, who 
came to the City of Pittsburgh as a 
young man to play professional baseball; 
and 

WHEREAS, After a great career in his 
chosen profession, he was elected to the 
Hall of Fame in 1948 and became known 
as the greatest third-baseman that ever 
lived. He was selected as Manager and 
later was named coach and instructor of 
the only National League baseball team 
he ever played for, The Pittsburgh Pi¬ 
rates. 

Hs baseball career having ended, “Pie” 
and his wife, Eve, chose Pittsburgh as 
their home, where he became a radio 
and television personality and a pleasing 
after-dinner speaker. 

He became one of this City’s most fa¬ 
mous and beloved citizens, was loved by 
young and old alike, and reflected the 
very best as an athlete and citizen. 

To sum it all up and quoting an edi¬ 
torial in the Pittsburgh Press of Satur¬ 
day, March 18, 1972, “Pie Traynor— 

Modest Immortal.” 

THEREFORE, be it Resolved, that the 
Mayor and the Members of the Council 
of the City of Pittsburgh, on behalf of 
the citizens of this city, extend their 
deepest expression of sympathy to “Pie” 
Traynor’s widow.

Mr. Fagan moved 

The adoption of the resolution. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Mason: 

With your permission, I would 
like to say a few words. I am saying 
this with as much studied reference 
that I possibly can. I did not reflect on 
what I am about to say alone. I have 
talked with each of you at one given 
time or another and it was the studied 
opinion of you, my colleagues, that noth¬ 
ing should be said. I abided by this and 
kept my big fat trap shut. 

The situation became intolerable to 
me, not only as your elected Prsident, 
but because of this irresponsible news¬ 
paper article that proposed to do an 
analysis on the behavior of this Council 
and each and every City Councilman. 

I would not necessarily be perforce to 
react to this excepting I came here 
naked as every one of you did and I bore 
a name. The name is Mason, and in case 
the reporters don’t understand it, it is 
spelled M-A-S-O-N. It is a name I have 
tried to protect. 

This newspaper article which chal¬ 
lenged the integrity of this Council is 
unpalatable to me as it reflects on me as 
an individual, and on Council as a 
whole. I am not using this platform for 
me; I’m using it in terms of a challenge 
to leadership. 

You talk about leadership. You guys, 
my colleagues, out there are the leaders 
and everyone of you know it. Night and 
day I have called you. Night and day I 
have to wrestle with decisions, some of 
which I didn’t always agree with. But 
when you invade my home and attack 
my integrity and my attempted contri¬ 
butions to this community, I have to 
take exception. For 27 years I have la¬ 
bored here and I don’t intend to be ma¬ 
ligned, nor have my family upset by this 
kind of journalistic irresponsibility. I 
mean that from the bottom of my heart. 

Each of you know I have called you 
night and day and I think I talked to 
Mr. Michaels at 11 o’clock night before 


last. I have talked with Mr. Fagan as 
late as one o’clock, A.M., and with Amy. 
I need your advice. I am not the leader 
per se and I am not here because I am 
Black. I don’t think I am. At least I’d 
like to think I wasn’t here because I’m 
Black but because somebody recognized 
at some point that maybe I had some 
ability and contributions to make. If I 
don’t, you ladies and gentlemen have a 
right to expunge me from this office 
and anybody can have it. 

Two of my colleagues have come to 
me and said, "you’re working too hard,” 
and “you ought to be paid $25,000.” I 
think I produce as much as some of the 
directors produce who earn $25,000 and 
we have to plead with them and threat¬ 
en them to get them off their fannies 
to do the job that you and I are respon¬ 
sible for by the public. 

I get a little bit sick and tired of 
people who would take another person’s 
character and reputation and put it 
forth in this kind of an attack. I don’t 
like it! I called the newspapers and 
told them I didn’t like it. I think it is 
unfair to each and every one of you. 

I’m not afraid of conflict but don’t 
tell me because you have 250 or 300 
thousand readers, I can’t attack back. 

I use this platform to say to you if 
you don’t want me in this Chair, take 
me out. If I don’t give the leadership 
you want, take me out. 

Each of you City Councilmen, in the 
year 1971, responded on three different 
occasions to phone calls made as late as 
10 o’clock in the evening to be in this of¬ 
fice at 9 o’clock the following morning 
for a caucas. In another instance, all of 
you, without exception, responded to a 
call at 7:15 o’clock, p.m., to be at a cau¬ 
cus and special legislative meeting on 
December 31, 1971. 

Either you came because of leadership 
or because of your feeling of self-respon- 
sibility to the job which you hold. I 
have faith in you, that you didn’t come 
because Lou Mason called and said there 
was an emergency, but because you had 

responsibility to your community. 

I mean what I say from the botttom 
of my heart. Anybody who wants to 


113 



take difference can expunge my name 
from news print finally. We have cooper¬ 
ated with the press. We have tried to 
get quartz lights for television cameras; 
they use our telephones and our photo¬ 
copying machine. Sure, sometimes I 
don’t answer their questions, because I 
can’t answer. I can’t answer for the 
opinion of Council. You folks can go on 
radio and television and speak of your 
opinion, but when I speak, I speak as 
President of Council. I speak when you 
leaders out there tell me your focal 
point and then I respond thereto in 
terms of the consensus of opinions. 

I have had my say. Any other com¬ 
ments? 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That Mr. DePasquale and Mr. 


Lynch be excused for absence from this 
meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, March 13, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That this meeting of Council 
adjourn with a moment of silent prayer 
in memory of Harold Joseph “Pie” Tray- 
nor and Pietro DePasquale, father of 
Councilman DePasquale. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And Council adjourned.

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Miss Ballinger: 

Mr. Chairman, I don’t have a 
motion or resolution but I would like to 
speak very shortly on behalf of the 
Firemen’s Pension Fund for the wid¬ 
ows. 

I feel that we all, and I hope that I 
am not using my prerogative unduly, 
but I feel that the members of City 
Council feel as I do. We all have re¬ 
ceived so many letters and telephone 
calls from the widows wondering what 
City Council is going to do with regard 
to their pension. And, I feel that we 
can assure the widows that after we ex¬ 
plore where the funds come from, that 
we will do everything that we possibly 
can to see that the widows get their 
pension. 

We know that it is justified. We know 
that whether their husbands have died 
in fighting fires for this great City or 
died of natural causes, we know that it 
is deserving. We know that it is very 
small. However, I feel that we should 
assure them that we are working on 
this proposition and as soon as we find 
from where we can secure the neces¬ 
sary money to pay it, that we will pro¬ 
ceed accordingly. 


more vacancies have been created in the 
Police Department and six (6) in the 
Fire Department and I would like very 
much for a special meeting to be called, 
a public meeting, with Mayor Flaherty 
and the heads of the F. O. P. and the 
Fire Fighters and also, naturally, the 
heads of the Public Safety Department, 
the Police Chief and the Fire Chief, and 
I so move. 

It should be aired to the public as 
to why these vacancies are not filled 
and it should be brought to the sur¬ 
face. The money is there, the vacan¬ 
cies are in the budget and the money is 
provided for in the budget and we 
haven’t filled one vacancy, or the Mayor 
hasn’t, since the first of the year. 

It is just going on and on and I am 
just curious as to whether or not we are 
going to do away with the Police and 
Fire Departments. We have something 
like 40 or 50 Police and Firemen now 
that are ready to “jack up” as I un¬ 
derstand, who are ready to take their 
time and it is a possibility that 300 or 
400 more may retire at one time. Now, 
it is no problem that they could and 
if they did, this City would be in a sit¬ 
uation where we just couldn’t repair it. 

We’ve got to do something. We’ve got 
to call the Mayor and bring it to his 
attention. This affects all of the City 
of Pittsburgh and when it comes to 
public safety, cost be hanged, because 
these jobs have to be filled. 


Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. Chairman, due to the fact 
that the Chairman of that Committee, 
Department of Public Safety, Mr. Mi¬ 
chaels, has not been heard from, may¬ 
be before we vote on the motion, Mr. 
Michaels might have something to say. 


Mr. DePasquale: 

Regarding the widows of Fire¬ 
men, it behooves me that we still have 
hundreds of vacancies in the Police and 
Fire Departments, I think something 
like 112 in the Police Department and 
over 100 in the Fire Department. 

I think since the first of the year, 12 


Mr. DePasquale: 

I'm sorry, I didn’t mean to 
slight the Chairman, Mr. Michaels, I’m 
sure. 


The Chair: 

Mr. Michaels, do you have any 
comments that you would like to make? 


129 



Mr. Michaels: 

No comments. 

The Chair: 

It has been properly moved 
and seconded that all participants tak¬ 
ing part in this session to discuss the 
current vacancies in light of the Civil 
Service Examinations. 

I would like for the Civil Service 
Commissioner to be present, the Public 
Safety Director, the Fire Chief, Chief of 
Police, plus the Chief Examining Offi¬ 
cer and the Chairman of the City Civil 
Service Commission. Is that right? 


Mr. DePasquale: 

Plus the F. O. P. 

Which motion prevailed with the ex¬ 
ception of Mr. Michaels who registered 
his abstention. 

Miss Ballinger moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, March 20, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. Lynch, 

Council adjourned.

ONE HUNDRED 
SEVENTEENTH COUNCIL 


LOUIS MASON, Jr._President 

LOUIS C. DINARDO_City Clerk 

MICHAEL A. PERRY_Ass’t. City Clerk 

Pittsburgh, Pa., 

Monday, April 3, 1972 

Present:— 

Miss Ballinger Mr. Kamyk 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Lynch 

Mr. DePasquale Mr. Michaels 

Mr. Fagan Mr. Mason 

(Pres’t) 

Absent:—Mr. Shields. 

The meeting was opened by the reci¬ 
tation of the pledge of allegiance to the 
Flag of the United States of America. 

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the 
United States of America, and to the 
Republic for which it stands, one Na¬ 
tion, under God, indivisible, with lib¬ 
erty and justice for all. 

The Chair: 

Prior to the first order of busi¬ 
ness is the nomination of the City Clerk 
and that of the Assistant City Clerk for 
their office. 

The Chair would like to turn over its 


authority to Mr. Thomas L. Fagan for 
the nomination of City Clerk. 

Mr. Fagan: 

Mr. Fagan: 

I now open the nomination for 
City Clerk for the ensuing term. 

Mr. Mason: 

I would like to place in nomi¬ 
nation the name of Mr. Louis DiNardo 
who has been an employee of the City 
of Pittsburgh for the last 30 years. He 
started as a clerk, was elected to As¬ 
sistant City Clerk and then to City 
Clerk. 

He is married, the father of two 
children, has two grand-children and 
has served under six presidents of this 
honorable body and five Mayors. For 
the last fifteen years he has been a 
member of the Allegheny County Dem¬ 
ocratic Party and a member of their 
Finance Committee. 

I therefore, respectfully submit, with 
all of the honors that I possibly can be¬ 
stow upon him for his services to City 
Council, to the City of Pittsburgh and 
to the City as a whole, the name of 
Louis DiNardo. 

Mr. Fagan: 

Is there a second to that nomi¬ 
nation? 

Mr. DePasquale: 

Mr. Chairman, I would like to 
echo the sentiments of Mr. Mason and 
second the nomination of Mr. Louis 
DiNardo. 








Mr. Mason moved 

That the nominations close on 
the name of Louis C. DiNardo. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And the roll having been called, the 
ayes were: 

Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger Mr. Kamyk 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Lynch 

Mr. DePasquale Mr. Michaels 

Mr. Fagan Mr. Mason 

(Pres’t) 

Ayes 8. Noes none. 

And Louis C. DiNardo having re¬ 
ceived the unanimous vote of Council 
was duly elected City Clerk for the en¬ 
suing term. 

Mr. Fagan: 

Mr. Chairman, I rise at this 
time to place in nomination for the 
Assistant Clerk, Mike Perry, who has 
served this Council well. He is a young 
fellow who has worked diligently at this 
position and I think that we have the 
proper balance as far as age is con¬ 
cerned here. 

I am sure that some day Mike will 
follow his serious aspirations in the 
way he has worked and some day he 
will reach the heights of being the City 
Clerk. 

So, with that Mr. Chairman, I place 
in nomination the name of Mike Perry. 

The Chair: 

Is there a second to the nom¬ 
ination? 

Mr. Michaels: 

I second the nomination. 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That the nominations close on 
the name of Michael A. Perry. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And the roll having been called, the 
ayes were: 


Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger Mr. Kamyk 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Lynch 

Mr. DePasquale Mr. Michaels 

Mr. Fagan Mr. Mason 

(Pres’t) 

Ayes 8. Noes none. 

And Michael A. Perry having received 
the unanimous vote of Council was duly 
elected Assistant City Clerk for the en¬ 
suing term. 

The oaths of office were duly admin¬ 
istered to Louis C. DiNardo, City Clerk, 
and Michael A. Perry, Assistant City 
Clerk, by Louis Mason, Jr., President of 
Council. 


The Chair: 

Do either of you gentlemen 
wish to make any remarks? 

Mr. DiNardo: 

With your permission Mr. Presi¬ 
dent, I would like to thank the mem¬ 
bers of Council for the confidence they 
have shown in reelecting me to my 
third term. 

Thank you. 

The Chair: 

Mr. Perry! 

Mr. Perry: 

Mr. President, I too would like 
to express my gratitude to each and 
every one of you for again electing me

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 
Mr. DePasquale: 

I would make this in the form 
of a request. I would like to have the 
Director of the Department of Water 
and a representative of the Rockwell 
Manufacturing Company present at our 
meeting on Wednesday morning in re¬ 
gards to three particular cases which 
we have received of exorbitant water 
bills where water charges have risen 
from $75 to $900 in one case and in 
another, fTom $50 to $500. One store 
is Sol Mintz’s on Wood Street and Vin¬ 
cent Henry’s Restaurant on Penn Ave¬ 
nue. 

I would like to have explained to me 
by the manufacturers of these meters 
whether there is a possibility of slip¬ 
page in the meters to cause so much 
discrepancy. The Water Department says 
if their meters are not faulty, and there 
are no leaks, the water must have been 
used and payment must be made. It 
seems if the meter shows a person using 
that much water in a three-month pe¬ 
riod, there must be a reason and I 
would like to hear from Rockwell Man¬ 
ufacturers, with the Director of the De¬ 
partment of Water present, at Wednes¬ 
day’s meeting. 

The Chair: 

It appears to me, over a period 
of years, there may now be some defect 
and while Mr. DePasquale mentioned 
some outstanding businesses, what 
about the small householders. 

Is there any opposition?

Hearing none, I assume it to be okay 
and Mr. DePasquale, if you could ar¬ 
range to have Mr. Miller and whatever 
representative Rockwell Company wants 
to have present at our Wednesday’s 
Committee meeting to make an inter¬ 
pretation for me. 

Mr. DePasquale: 

I don’t want to waste anyone s 
time, but in the past, they have had 
these representatives in and they have 
admitted that it is possible, although 
not probable, that slippage occurs. 


The Chair: 

Abiding by that suggestion, I 
think we have approval on that. 

Any other comments? 

Mr. Lynch moved 

That the Minutes of Council, 
of Monday, April 3, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. DePasquale, 
Council adjourned.

Wednesday for discussion. And, while I 
feel that adopting the resolution pre¬ 
sented today is not exactly what I would 
have liked, but I do feel that we are 
now progressing toward a Convention 
Center and this is a great step forward. 

I wanted to tell the people that after 
a very serious meeting this morning in 
conference where we studied the many 
phases that involves building a Con¬ 
vention Center, that the majority of 
Council expressed themselves and said 
that they would still like to have a 
price from the Penn-Central. 

Even though I fought it vigorously, 
feeling that it can’t come about within 
a lesser period of approximately two 
years, and also feel that the amount of 
land the Penn-Central had to offer is 
not sufficient to establish a Convention 
Center. But, this was the will of the 
majority and I felt that I should go 
along with it. 

We also want to explore the possibil¬ 
ity of the County playing a major part

in the Convention Hall because I am 
quite sure that the people from the 
Southside realize in building a Conven¬ 
tion Hall is not Just a matter of con¬ 
structing a building. And, while we 
know that Jobs are necessary all 
throughout the country, even building 
a Convention Hall entails many phases, 
not only of the City Government but 
County and State. It might be their 
wish, but we can and will have a def¬ 
inite site chosen very shortly and of 
course, we will try to make it as soon 
as possible. 

Since the matter has been dragging 
for quite a period of time, I now be¬ 
lieve that it is well on its way to reality 
and let’s hope so for the good of all 
the people of the City of Pittsburgh. 


I have committed myself to this site 
as have the other Councdlmen, and I 
promise steadfastly to push it with all 
my might. Some pushes are larger than 
others, as we are well aware, but each 
little push is better than none and I 
shall offer that. 

Thank you. 

Miss Ballinger moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, April 10, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. Fagan, 

Council adjourned.

Bill No. 324. Whereas, the 
United States Department of Housing

demonstration communities in the 
United States for a special three - year 
experimental program to test the feasi¬ 
bility and applicability of a housing al¬ 
lowance program to solve the housing 
problems of low or moderate income 
families; and 

Whereas, the Housing Inadequacies 
Task Force of the Reappraisal and De¬ 
velopment Commission (“Housing Task 
Force”) believes that Pittsburgh would 
provide an excellent locale for one of 
the six United States Department of 
Housing and Urban Development hous- 


173 



ing allowance demonstration experi¬ 
ments; and for that reason and because 
the “Housing Allowance Program” of¬ 
fers a new approach to many old and 
vexing problems of housing, the Task 
Force, on January 19, 1972, after re¬ 
viewing the new program, unanimously 
passed the following resolution: 

‘(1) The Housing Task Force supports 
the principle of “control by the 
market" involved in housing allow¬ 
ances. 

’(2) The Housing Task Force approves 
and supports the H.U.D. housing 
allowance experiment, provided an 
adequate income allowance is pro¬ 
vided; and provided the program re¬ 
flects regional differences affecting 
the proposed allowances; and pro¬ 
vided Section 235 and 236 pro¬ 
grams continue during the experi¬ 
ment. 

*(3) The Task Force urges the city, 
county officials, affected agency 
heads and our Congressmen and 
Senators aggressively to seek that 
Pittsburgh and Allegheny County 
be included among the six (6) ex- 
perimental communities to be 
chosen by the H.U.D. for this dem¬ 
onstration.’; and 

Whereas, it would be to the benefit 
of the City of Pittsburgh if it were se¬ 
lected as one of the six (6) demonstra¬ 
tion communities for the housing al¬ 
lowance demonstration experiments. 

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That 
the Council of the City of Pittsburgh

Bill No. 451. 

CITY OF PITTSBURGH 
PETE FLAHERTY, Mayor 

May 1, 1972 

President and Members of Council 
510 City-County Building 
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15219 


Re: Veto of Bill No. 366 
Dear Gentlemen and Madam: 

I am returning the attached Ordi¬ 
nance unsigned with my veto for the 
following reasons: 

The fees are discriminatory and ex¬ 
cessive. 

The Ordinance requires the people of 
Pittsburgh to pay an admission fee of 
$1.00 to enter the zoo and an additional 
fee of $1.00 to park in the parking lot. 

At the same time Council has grant¬ 
ed an exemption to members of the Zo¬ 
ological Society. 

The main zoo must be free to the 
people and parking rates must be ap¬ 
plied uniformly and equally to all peo¬ 
ple. 

Very truly yours, 

PETE FLAHERTY 

PF:fkn 

Which was read, received and filed. 
Also, 

Bill No. 366. An Ordinance en¬ 
titled, “An Ordinance authorizing and 
directing the Mayor and the Director of 
the Department of Parks and Recrea¬ 
tion to enter into an agreement with 
the Pittsburgh Zoological Society, pro¬ 
viding that the Pittsburgh Zoological 
Society under the supervision of the Di¬ 
rector of the Department of Parks and 
Recreation shall have the right and 
privilege to operate the Children’s Zoo, 
the Underground Zoo and the Aqua 
Zoo at the Pittsburgh Zoo; to collect 
admission and parking fees, to operate 
concessions for the sale of refreshments 
and souvenirs; to operate amusements; 
to use the proceeds therefrom for the 
operation and maintenance of the Chil¬ 
dren’s Zoo, the Underground Zoo and 
the Aqua Zoo and for the continued de¬ 
velopment and improvement of other 
areas of the Pittsburgh Zoo, fixing ad¬ 
mission and parking fees; authorizing 
the Society to exempt its members from 
such admission and parking fees; and 
providing for the payment of $55,000 a 
year to the City from the Society for 


184 




the construction of the Heth’s Run 
parking area.” 

Which was read. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

Mr. President, I would like to 
move at this time we take a vote to 
override the Mayor’s veto on Bill No. 
366. 


Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I would just like 
to add, I don’t believe the Mayor’s letter 
actually describes the situation at the 
Zoo properly at all. He must well know 
that in the new ordinance, it does call 
for the Zoological Society members who 
pay a mimimum of $10 a year, $1.60 of 
that immediately goes into a trust fund. 
The remaining $8.50 is ujsed generally, 
by the Zoological Society, for general 
benefits for the Zoo. Therefore, I can’t 
really understand the remarks made by 
the Mayor and I would just like to make 
that comment. 


Mr. Mason: 

For the purposes of the press, 
would you be kind enough to indicate 
the sanctions on that trust fund or the 
provisions of that trust fund will not 
be used for the City’s general fund, but 
for that fund alone. 


Mr. Michaels: 

X think Mr. Caliguiri could state 
them better than I. 

Mr. Mason: 

Mr. Caliguiri, would you deline¬ 
ate on the trust fund? 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

The trust fund is established to 
accept any excess fluids from the gen¬ 
eral admission fees, the excess funds 
from the parking fees and the conces¬ 
sion stands. Also, 15 per cent of the 
Society’s membership dues will be put 
in this trust fund which will amount 
to approximately $10,000 per year under 
the present membership. This money 


will be used for the expansion of the 
entire Pittsburgh Zoo which includes 
the main Zoo complex, so the statement 
that these fees may be discriminatory is 
not true, because they are going to be 
used by the Society in cooperation with 
the City to further expand the entire 
Pittsburgh Zoo. 

I might add also, this one dollar 
charge the Mayor is talking about, let 
us not kid the public, because at least 
75 per cent of the people who visit that 
Zoo complex are from outside the City 
of Pittsburgh so we are not saving 
money for the people of Pittsburgh. In 
fact, they incur one hundred per cent 
of the operations cost of the Pittsburgh 
Zoo. We are not making it free to them, 
but free to the people who, in fact, do 
not contribute any tax dollars for the 
operation of the Zoo. 

Mr. Mufoii: 

No one can touch that fund for 
general purposes, but it must be used 
exclusively for the Zoo? 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

That is right, exclusively. 


Mr. Lynch: 

I think the Mayor’s charges are 
ill-founded, irresponsible, and simply 
evidence of the Mayor’s throwing a 
temper tantrum because he is not able 
to rule the City by decree. Obviously, 
working out an agreement with the Zoo 
Society is in the best interest of the 
citizens of this City. That is what has 
been agreed to, in my opinion, and for 
him to come up with this kind of move, 
this play acting, in this last-minute veto, 
after being fully aware of what was go¬ 
ing on, I believe, is a disservice to this 
Council and to the citizens of Pittsburgh 
and I think we should not waste any 
more time on this kind if display of 
temper tantrum, and would like to sug¬ 
gest we move along. 


The Chair: 

All those wishing to override the 
Mayor’s veto will vote “Aye” an,d those 
opposed will vote “No.”

REPORTS OF THE SUB-COMMITTEES 
OF COUNCIL 


The Chair: 

I would like to report for the 
record that the sub-committee of this 
Council, including Council woman Bal¬ 
linger, Councilman Fagan, Councilman 
Lynch, Councilman Michaels and my¬ 
self met with the County Commission¬ 
ers last Thursday, May 18, 1972 to dis¬ 
cuss the possibilities relative to bring¬ 
ing «down to four (4), the different 
kinds of possibilities; so that it can be 
offered as material for the proposed 
convention center. 

It was agreed that the County Solic¬ 
itor and the City Solicitor would sit 
down and try to iron out the phases set 
down and check out the four (4) possi¬ 
bilities. 

I would also like to say for the record 
and totally for Council, in response to 
the letter from the Mayor that the meet¬ 
ing, in effect, was open to the public 


224 



by the admission of the fourth estate 
both T. V. and radio as well as the 
printed material. 

The implementation of the suggestion 
which was agreed to by the committee 
will follow as soon as we get the twc 
solicitors to iron out the various options 
referred to in the report. 

Is there any other member who wishes 
to add something to my very brief re¬ 
port? 

Mr. Michaels: 

I believe that it is important to show 
also, Mr. Chairman, for the record, that 
the Mayor was invited to attend, but 
he chose not to attend this conference. 

The record also ought to show that the 
Mayor did not meet with us to discuss 
the problems or the operation of the 
convention center. I believe his state¬ 
ment to be entirely a subterfuge. He 
didn’t tell me who he met with, or who 
was there or who he was going to meet 
with. I think the Bill of Rights allows 
me still the freedom of assembly be¬ 
cause I am a Councilman and I don’t 
think I ought to be denied that right. 

I think his gesture was to discredit 
members of this Council and also the 
County Commissioners and I think the 


Mayor’s failure to participate in this dis¬ 
cussion is unfortunate for all. 

The Chair: 

Thank you, Mr. Michaels. 

Are there any other comments from 
members of that committee? 

I just want to make sure that this sub¬ 
committee duly meets so that we can 
therefore champion the work of this 
committee.

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 
Mr. Caliguiri: 

Mr President, relative to Coun¬ 
cil Bill 532, I would like to make a mo¬ 
tion that Council, under your signature, 
direct a letter to A. W. Mellon Charity 
Trust Fund thanking them for their 
grant of $800,000 to rehabilitate the Alle¬ 
gheny Regional Branch of the Carnegie 
Library. I think it is a fine gesture on 
their part and even though they may be 
thought of as a special interest group, I 
think the people of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh should know we need these kind 


of special interest groups to help us. We 
don’t realize $800,000 every day, and I 
move that Council direct a letter ex¬ 
pressing our gratitude for their grant. 

Which motion prevailed. 


Mr. Lynch: 

With regard to the recent dis¬ 
pute over the grant of the City of $8,500 
to the Three Rivers Art Festival.it has 
come to my attention the procedure fol¬ 
lowed in the past, in the case of normal 
grant appropriations, the money is 
granted by Council, the notice is sent to 
the City Controller who prepares the 
check which is signed by the Mayor and 
then signed last by the City Controller. 
Mr. Rush tells us that is the procedure. 

I would like, then, to direct an in¬ 
quiry, by motion or whatever pleases 
the Council, for a report at Wednesday’s 
Finance meeting as to why, when it was 
received by the City Controller, it wasn’t 
signed and sent to Three Rivers Art Fes¬ 
tival? How can the Mayor send one of 
his aides down to pick up a check for 
him? I would like to have that question 
aired at the next Finance meeting. 

To repeat, the procedure followed 
here is, the first person to sign the check 
is the Mayor. It then goes, after the 
Mayor has signed it, to the City Control¬ 
ler for his signature. After the Control¬ 
ler signs it, it goes out. 

Mr. DiNardo: 

First the Mayor signs it, then 
the City Treasurer, and then the City 
Controller. 


Mr. Lynch: 

Right, so it should not go back 
to the Mayor. Under normal procedure, 
there is no reason the check ought to go 
back to the Mayor and I would like the 
City Clerk to direct an inquiry to the 
City Controller as to the procedure fol¬ 
lowed with regard to the $8,500 check to 
Three Rivers Art Festival If it needs 
to be a motion, I will make it; other¬ 
wise, I make a simple request, on record, 
to the City Clerk, to direct that inquiry 
for Wednesday’s Committee meeting, to¬ 
morrow afternoon. 


234 




The Chair: 

It seems the letter should go out 
over the signature of the Finance Chair¬ 
man. 

Mr. Lynch: 

That’s alright, but I want the 
record to show that Council authorizes 
the City Clerk to direct a letter to the 
City Controller. I think it is proper 
from Council to the City Controller, ask¬ 
ing him to explain how it is that the 
Mayor got the check back. 

Mr. Michaels: 

I would append that by request¬ 
ing information as to whether or not 
the Mayor may legally withhold his sig¬ 
nature from what has been an action of 
this Council. It seems to me he is le¬ 
gally bound to perform whatever his re¬ 
sponsibility is in making the instrument 
cashable. 

The Chair: 

Would you accept that additional 
appendage? 

Mr. Lynch: 

I would. 

The Mayor has given instruc¬ 
tions, I have just been informed, to the 
City Controller that all checks over one 
thousand dollars authorized by this 
Council are to be sent back to him. That 


seems an unusual arrangement, so I 
would like to have the City Controller 
explain the procedure he uses to handle 
these funds. 


Mr. Michaels: 

Since this is an action of the 
Mayor, maybe the Mayor ought to an¬ 
swer that. 

Mr. Lynch: 

if you please, that is appropri¬ 
ate, if you want to speak to the Mayor, 
but I would like to have the Controller 
speak to that. 

Mr. DiNardo: 

The Controller will be at tomor¬ 
row’s Finance meeting. 

Mr. Fagan moved 

That Mr. DePasquale be excused 
for absence from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Lynch moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, May 22, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. Caliguiri, 
Council adjourned.

to the City Planning Commission make 
it imperative that I speak out now on a 
subject which has long concerned me, 
and which should concern the citizens 
of this community. 

What I must convey is the need to 
examine appointments made to Com¬ 
missions and Authorities and the ways 
in which these bodies operate. This is 
particularly applicable to developmental 
type bodies such as City Planning, Ur¬ 
ban Redevelopment Authority, Housing, 
and Parking Authorities, and, to a lesser 
extent, those involved with public facil¬ 
ities: the Civic Arena and Three Rivers 
Stadium. 


The activities and powers of these or¬ 
ganizations have such effects on the so¬ 
cial well-being and economic lives of the 
community that continued passive ac¬ 
ceptance of the status quo is unthinkable 
to me. Although a comprehensive investi¬ 
gation of the entire scene is a huge 
task, we must begin. And the two ap¬ 
pointments in question demand that we 
begin now. 

First, let me say emphatically that I 
have no quarrel with either ctf these 
gentlemen, nor would I cast any doubts 
on their character or integrity. What I 
would suggest is that to the best of my 
knowledge, neither has the background, 
experience or history of community in¬ 
volvement to be an appropriate choice 
for City Planning. 

I say, “to the best of my knowledge” 
because City Council’s request to the 
Mayor for resumes’ on both men has 
been ignored. 

In the case of City Planning and cer¬ 
tain other commissions and authorities, 
City Council has not only the right but 
the obligation to reject those appoint¬ 
ments which we feel are not in the best 
interests of the people we represent. 

Again, I repeat, I conduct no witch 
hunt. I look for no scapegoat. It is not 
my intent to intimidate the many capa¬ 
ble private citizens who have rendered 
and are continuing to render invaluable, 
unselfish service to our co mm unity. 

Nevertheless, we must find ways to 
guarantee that those who serve in posi¬ 
tions of responsibility are truly qualified 
for the roles they are chosen to play. We 
must also guarantee that they will be 
chosen for their capabilities as well as 
the segment of society or neighborhood 
to which they belong, and their voca¬ 
tional background. There is a need for 
bi-partisan participation, which in Pitts¬ 
burgh at this time may really mean the 
inclusion of those within the Democratic 
party whose views are not identical to 
those of the Flaherty administration. 
There are too many who have served 
with distinction who have been relegated 
to obscurity. The loss of their experi¬ 
ence is irreparable. 

So—where do we go from here? 

First, we must establish that when 


243 





vacancies are filled, the right people are 
chosen. And those chosen must he 
aware that although they axe neither 
elected nor employed by the municipal¬ 
ity, they have no less responsibility to 
the electorate. Their responsibilities are 
by no means limited to the person by 
whom they were appointed, but must 
answer to the whole community. And, 
they must be given the freedom to op¬ 
erate without having their hands and 
feet tied. While it is certainly within 
the rights of any administration to ter¬ 
minate the services of those whose per¬ 
formances are unsatisfactory, dismissals 
without valid cause are a sure way to 
guarantee ultimate mediocrity. 

Unfortunately, our commissions and 
authorities continue to operate as they 
did when they were founded, as sepa¬ 
rate entities, carrying out their own 
specific function within rigid boundar¬ 
ies. Communication is lacking between 
these groups and other organized seg¬ 
ments of the community .many of whom 
should be consulted regularly. The aca¬ 
demic and Industrial sector of this city 
have too much to offer to be continually 
ignored. 

The situation is unacceptable. I call 
for a halt here and now. I will not vote 
approval for the appointments of Mr. 
McClung or Mr. Young until such time 
as their qualifications for the Planning 
Commission have been demonstrated or 
their names are withdrawn and others 
submitted. 

City Council, acting in an advise and 
consent role, cannot make the appoint¬ 
ments. 

It can only presume that the admin - 
istration uses due diligence In seeking 
out the vast talents available in this 
city. When there is an avowed attempt 
on the part of the Mayor to ignore this, 
then we must act accordingly. 

The Chair: 

The Chair will call the role on 
the motion to table the nomination of 
William McClung as a member of the 
City Planning Commission. 

And the roll being called, the ayes 
and noes were taken, agreeably to law,

Seconded the motion. 

The Chair: 

The Clerk will call the roll on the

motion to table the nomination of Louis 
E. Young as a member of the City Plan¬

And the roll being called, the ayes and

were: 

Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger 

Mr. Caliguiri 

Mr. DeP as quale 

Mr. Pagan 

Mr. Kamyk 

Ayes 9. Noes none. 

And the vote of Council being unani¬ 
mous, the nomination of Louis E. Young 
as a member of the City Planning Com¬ 
mission was tabled. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

Last night (Sunday, June 4, 
1972) I witnessed another unfortunate 
example of a curtailment of a cultural 
activity—this time the American Wind 
Symphony Program. Either through the 
lack of communications on the part of 
the Wind Symphony, or the administra¬ 
tion, there was no power available down 
on the symphony barge for them to 
complete their performance. 

In fact, the program was shortened to 
just 45 minutes, and when the sun went 
down and the players were no longer 
able to read their music the perform¬ 
ance came to an end. This was unfor¬ 
tunate since approximately 5,000 people 
came to Point State Park to enjoy a full 
concert. 

Also, $12,500 has been eliminated from 
the budget. Council, when it approved 
the budget for 1972, was assured at that 
time that there would be some sort of 
aid to the American Wind Symphony 
and that the administration would help 
to maintain the barge, and at least co¬ 
operate in the production of these con¬ 
certs. 

We now find that there is no coopera¬ 
tion and that the American Wind Sym¬ 
phony will have to incur the total cost 
of maintaining the barge. Also, they 
will have to secure their own electri¬ 
cians to hook up a line to the power 
source in order to continue their sched¬ 
ule for 1972. 


It is possible we may have seen the 
last concert on last Sunday night. I 
hope this will not happen because it is 
an event that we need in Pittsburgh 
and we want to keep it here. 

I also recommend at this time that 
the Director of the Department of Parks 
and Recreation, Stephen George, be 
asked to be present at the committee 
meetings on Wednesday to tell us 
whether or not there is going to be co¬ 
operation in terms of getting a power 
source to the barge so that we can at 
least continue the schedule this year. 

And furthermore, I want to know—is 
there going to be any funds or any help 
whatsoever for the American Wind Sym¬ 
phony for the coming year of 1973. If 
not, then Council is going to have to 
consider, possibly, a grant to the Sym¬ 
phony. 

The Chair: 

Thank you, Mr. Caliguiri. Your 
comments are duly noted. 

Mr. City Clerk, relative to comment 
No. 1, will you make sure that Mr. 
George is available at the Committee 
meeting on Wednesday. Relative to com¬ 
ment No. 2, he may not be able to an¬ 
swer but I certainly would like to draw 
it to the attention of the Chairman of 
Finance. 

This is one of things that we had 
prepared for as a contingency to the 
budget of 1973. Is that correct, Dick? 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

Yes. 

The Chair: 

I understand there are a lot o£ 
disgruntled citizens about this. Thank 
you very much. 

Mr. Caliguiri moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Tuesday, May 30, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Miss Ballinger, 
Council adjourned.

ONE HUNDRED 
SEVENTEENTH COUNCIL 


LOUIS MASON, Jr. ..President 

LOUIS C. D1NARDO_City Clerk 


MICHAEL A. PERRY_Ass’t City Clerk 


burgh. Council members have been in 
contact with me as President, both by 
phone and immediately prior to this 
meeting, to strongly suggest that we 
face the emergency situation which is 
governed, in part within the Charter, 
which indicates that where we have an 
emergency, there are funds available in 
the contingent status of our budget 
which provides and authorizes this 
Council to negotiate in any way for the 
removal of debris, overtime payment, or 
anything else immediately affecting the 
safety and health of the community. 


Pittsburgh, Pa., 
Monday, June 26, 1972 


Present:— 

Miss Ballinger 
Mr. Caliguiri 
Mr. DeP as quale 
Mr. Kamyk 


Mr. Lynch 
Mr. Michaels 
Mr. Shields 
Mr. Mason 
(Pres’t) 


Absent:—Mr. Fagan. 


The meeting was opened by the reci¬ 
tation of the pledge of allegiance to the 
Flag of the United States of America. 

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the 
United States of America, and to the 
Republic for which it stands, one Na¬ 
tion, under God, indivisible, with lib¬ 
erty and justice for all. 


Mr, Mason: 

Before the presentation of pa¬ 
pers, I would like to take the opportu¬ 
nity to express the will of Council on 
the catastrophe that has hit the State 
of Pennsylvania and the City of Pitts¬ 


In that light, Council pledges its co¬ 
operation relative to the use of said 
contingency fund and further pledges 
it will use whatever resources at its 
hands to expedite and secure any Fed¬ 
eral funds which will relieve our partic¬ 
ular area so that we get on with the 
business of safety, health care, recrea¬ 
tion, etc., in the community. 

I believe I express much of the senti¬ 
ment of Council but Council members 
certainly are welcome to add to my re¬ 
marks if they are so inclined. Are there 
any additional remarks from Council on 
this matter? 


Mr. Lynch: 

As Chairman of the Committee 
on Finance, I would like to underscore 
the willingness of the Finance Com¬ 
mittee to cooperate in any effort to 
alleviate any suffering on the part of 
our City or component of the City, and 
I would entertain any request for over¬ 
time for emergency sewers or other 
actions affiliated with this. I would also 
express my personal gratification with 
the service of the Pittsburgh Firemen 
and Police. I think they did a superb 
job. 


265 












Mr. Michaels: 

As Chairman of the Public Safe¬ 
ty Committee, I would like to extend my 
personal thanks to the members of the 
Fire and Police Department who, I 
know, served in the past weekend and I 
think we all appreciate it. 

Mr. DePasquale: 

I would just like to comment 
and echo the sentiments in regards to 
this catastrophe. 

Mr. Cnliguiri: 

I think we might also add, any 
cooperation we can give the Governor’s 
office. I am sure they are going around 
the City to find out what is necessary 
and we could extend this cooperation to 
Governor Shapp in his office, that what¬ 
ever we can do in this end of the State, 
certainly would be available to them. 

Mr. Shields: 

I would like to echo the opin¬ 
ions of the other Councilmen Certainly 
we are all very gratified at the coopera¬ 
tion and spirit shown under the circum¬ 
stances. 


.Miss Ballinger: 

Mr. Chairman, may I say, along 
with the other remarks, don’t forget the 
great job of the American Red Cross and 
Salvation Army and other organizations 
of that type who certainly are a big 
benefit. I had occasion to observe their 
work in the City of Newark, and when 
I saw the sand bags getting ready up 
there, I could only feel compassion for 
our people here because we had gone 
through it. 

Mr. Mason: 

Thank you. Your remarks will 
be added to the record. 

I wonder, Mr. Caliguiri, if it would be 
in keeping with your suggestion that a 
telegram be immediately dispatched to 
the Governor to let him know of our 
deep concern and that any help this 
Council body can give will be available? 


Mr. Caliguiri: 

I make a motion to that effect. 

Mr. Shields: 

Mr. President, I would like to 
ask the indulgence of the President for 
the purpose of calling for a recess and 
a caucus of City Council. 

Mr. Mason: 

Before the presentation of pa¬ 
pers? 

Mr. Shields: 

Yes. 

Mr. Mason: 

Is there any opposition to Mr. 
Mi*. Shields’ request, 

Air. Lynch: 

I would like to oppose. I think 
we ought to continue with the business 
of the City since we have convened. I 
don’t agree with the notion we ought to 
recess in private once Council meeting 
has been opened. 

Mr. Mason: 

This is not a precedent, Mr. 

Lynch. 

Mr. Lynch: 

I merely express my opposition 

to it. 

The Chair ruled for a recess, with one 
exception.

also. This City has coped with the prob¬ 
lem of a convention center for a long 
time and while this may be a propitious 
or non-propitious time to enter this res¬

move forward with a recommendation.

Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger 

Mr. Caliguiri 

Mr. DeP as quale 

Mr. Fagan 

Ayes 8. Noes one. 

Mr. Mason (Pres’t) voting “No"). 

And a majority of the votes of Coun¬ 
cil being In the affirmative, the bill 
passed finally. 

The Chair: 

I would like to give an expla¬ 
nation as to why I voted this way on 
Bill No. 616. This bill was presented to 
us in an omnibus form for which cer¬ 
tain specific amounts of money will be 
allocated to certain programs, unbe¬ 
known as to how much and where it 
would be Bpent. 

This does not mean that I am against 
this program which the Department of 
Parks and Recreation is trying to en¬ 
hance, especially since summer is very 
nearly over, but it means simply this; 
that in the cover letter of recommenda¬ 
tions of this legislation, the architec¬ 
tural design patterns were indicated to 
include Schenley Park as the site of the 
Ice Skating Rink. 

Gentlemen and Madam, it seems to 
me that we are engaged in various kinds 
of gestures of futility. We sat here and 
said that it should not be in Schenley 
Park. We sat here and we listened to 
another side of that case in the par¬ 
ticular neighborhood. Now, it seems to 
me that we are not serving the purpose 
of the neighborhood who appealed for a 
public hearing on the matter which is 
of concern to their individual neighbor¬ 
hood and this particular part of the bill 
is reprehensive to me. It is reprehenslve 


to me simply because we entertained 
the objection and simply because some 
of the protestants actively indicated that 
certain numeraries within the adminis¬ 
tration at that time indicated that this 
will be the place or no place at all and 
that the administration was not inter¬ 
ested in an appeal. 

People from East Liberty and other 
sections of the City were here for an 
hour and fifty-five minutes at this 
hearing, with the people of Hazelwood 
on their presentation and the East Lib¬ 
erty section and I don’t want to come 
to anything like a confrontation and we 
are going to pay attention to these peo¬ 
ple or we are going to be out of Coun¬ 
cil. 


Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. Chairman, Mr. Caliguiri’s 
remarks were well taken when he said 
last Wednesday that he had informed 
Mr. George, the Director of Parks and 
Recreation, that he go out into the 
East End area and investigate all possi¬ 
bilities of available areas and come up 
with a piece of property that might be 
available to us for this Ice Skating Rink; 
something that would at least be avail¬ 
able to some of the other communities 
so that they would have the opportu¬ 
nity to avail themselves of this facility. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

I had inquiry from the School 
Director just recently and I was in¬ 
formed that there possibly would be 
four (4) acres of ground available on the 
Great High School site and his letter 
is now being forwarded to the Planning 
Department so that they can meet with 
the architects and see what they can 
come up with. 

Also,

to as Penn Central) of Downtown Pitts¬ 
burgh. 

Which was read. 


Mr. Caliguiri: 

Mr. President, before I cast my 
vote I would like to say that my first 
choice is the Mon Plaza Site that has 
been before us. However, the first pri¬ 
ority before us today is whether we want 
a convention center and this is what I 
have to address myself to. We must have 
some location at this point and time, 
because this same thing has been going 
on for at least ten (10) years and at this 
time I am for a location to get a con¬ 
vention center finally. 

And, for this reason I hope a differ- 
ference of opinion would not mean that 
you are going to stop or try to hold up 
negotiations for a convention center. We 
all have a right to our opinions and we 
have the right to the difference of opin¬ 
ions, certainly. But at some point and 
time we have to ask ourselves, “do we 
finally want a convention center” and 
with this thought in mind, I only hope 
that we can reach a final agreement so 
that we can get the convention center 
started. 

Therefore, with this thought in mind, 
I cast an “aye” vote for the Penn Cen¬ 
tral site. 


Mr. Shields: 

Mr. President, I would Just like 
to say in consideration of the conven¬ 
tion center site, I have been opposed to 
the Penn Central site. As you know, I 
have been in favor of the Melody Tent 
site for a number of reasons. 

First of all, because of the readibility 
of access to land acquisition; secondly, 
the relative location there and accessi¬ 
bility of reaching the place and the fact 
that most cities throughout the country 
these days are building a public site in 
a complex where buildings complement 
each other. I am also in favor of the 
Melody Tent site because it would help 
to rebuild and redevelop the lower Hill 
which has been neglected for the last 
four or five years and which certainly 
needs attention. 


However, I find that I am in the same 
position as Mr. Caliguiri because I don’t 
want to stop the progress of the build¬ 
ing of a convention center here. While 
it is not my choice, as such, certainly 
the people want it and for this reason, 
I will vote “aye.” 

Mr. DePasquale: 

Mr. President, I would like to 
express my views as those of Mr. Cali¬ 
guiri and Mr. Shields. I am in favor of 
the Mon Plaza Site for the same reason 
that Mr. Shields is in favor of the Mel¬ 
ody Tent Site, and that being for the 
redevelopment of the South Side area. 
Like the lower Hill District, the South 
Side has been neglected for many years 
and I think a convention center at the 
Mon Plaza Site would have been very 
advantageous to the people of that 
area. 

But, rather than to vote “no”, and 
the people do want a convention center, 
I decided to go along with the Penn 
Central Site and vote “aye.” 


The Chair: 

Thank you gentlemen, for your 
comments. 

This is an expression of the majority 
of Council to the State Department of 
Commerce and the General State Au¬ 
thority. I believe by this expression 
here today, we are in favor of the chos¬ 
en site most accessible to the large ma¬ 
jority of this Council as they have ex¬ 
pressed here. It is the location most 
advantageous to this community. 

I am sure that we can all look for¬ 
ward to the convention center being 
built within a reasonable length of 
time.

23rd day of June, 1972 the President 
declared a "major disaster” in the State 
of Pennsylvania, and 

WHEREAS, the City of Pittsburgh is 
a public entity within said state, and 

WHEREAS, Federal financial assistance 
and flood relief is available from the 
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban 
Development, Small Business Adminis¬ 
tration, the Office of Emergency Pre¬ 
paredness and other Federal agencies. 

BE IT RESOLVED, That the Mayor of 
the City of Pittsburgh is hereby author¬ 
ized to execute for and in behalf of the 
City of Pittsburgh the applications for 
the purpose of obtaining flood relief, 
financial assistance, flood insurance, 
damages and other available programs 
for flood relief and to file said applica¬ 
tions in the appropriate federal and 
state offices applicable thereto. 

Which was read. 


Mr. Shields: 

Mr. President, this resolution 
seems to be somewhat belated, consider¬ 
ing the administration's concern for the 
welfare, convenience and safety of the 
many citizens of the City of Pittsburgh. 
It's kind of like closing the bam door 
after the horse has been stolen, since we 
could have and the City administration, 
made application to the Federal Govern¬ 
ment for aid for the flood victims. 


have the National Guard from Pitts¬ 
burgh, instead of going to summer 
camp, remain in the City to assist in the 
cleaning up of the City in any way that 
they can. I think we should request this 
from the State, that there be no sum¬ 
mer camp for the National Guard from 
this area. I believe there are about two 
or three hundred men that would qual¬ 
ify that we could keep here, and I think 
this should be referred to the Gover¬ 
nor's Office. 

Mr. President, I would like to put that

Mr. Kamyk: 

Mr. President, I rise to com¬ 
ment about Bill No. 696. That’s the bill 
that provides and authorizes the City 
to sell the property at Liberty Avenue, 
the former General Motors Building, to 
Duquesne Light Company for $500,000. 
Since the introduction of the bill, a lot 
of doubts were created in my mind, es¬ 
pecially when I read in the news media 
that there was hesitancy as far as some 
of the City officials were concerned. I 
don’t like the hesitancy part. I want 
them to be certain they don’t need the 
building any more and if they don’t 
need it it can be sold and if it is needed, 
it should be kept. Therefore, in order 
to give the bill further scrutiny and 
consideration, I move it be recommitted 
to the Committee on Lands and Build¬ 
ings. 

Which motion prevailed.

Bill No. 697. Resolution author¬ 
izing the sale of property in the 15th

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Mr. Lynch presented 

Bill No. 812. RESOLVED, That 
the Council of the City of Pittsburgh 
hereby approves the collective bargain¬ 
ing Memorandum of Agreement dated 
June 30, 1972, between the Fraternal 
Order of Police Fort Pitt Lodge No. 1 
and the City of Pittsburgh. 

Which was read. 

Mr. Mason: 

The Chair would like to exercise 
its privilege in commenting on this 
agreement. 

This agreement was drawn some two 
to three, or maybe four weeks ago and 
was released to the press as a bonafide 
agreement subsequently. I’d like to point 
out to my colleagues in Council that 
Council has a Labor Sub-committee com¬ 
posed of Mr. Fagan, Mr. DePasquale, and 


myself. At no time was Council or any 
of its members, either at large or of 
the Sub-commit tee, apprised of the na¬ 
ture of this agreement until we read 
it in the newspapers. The most impor¬ 
tant point is, not one member of Coun¬ 
cil or of the Labor Sub-committee was 
involved in these negotiations. 

I would also like to point out that the 
position of Council last year, and this 
year, has been certainly upheld by the 
Commonwealth Court in Harrisburg. It 
seems to me that what has been said in 
the Zoological decision of the Court and 
what has been said in Commonwealth 
Court is clear, that the City is com¬ 
posed of the Mayor and City Council 
and that the Mayor is not the City, per 
se. I consider it a personal affront to 
this City Council to be placed in a posi¬ 
tion to have to pass this resolution in 
order to prevent from going to arbitra¬ 
tion. I want that for the record. 

Any other comments? 


Mr. Michaels: 

I agree entirely with what you 
say, Mr. President, but I would like to 
taike it a step further. Should .Council 
determine that the agreement reached 
between the bargaining agent, the FOP 
in this case, and the Mayor’s people, 
was unsatisfactory, its choice then would 
be to not pass this resolution today, 
which then would allow it to go to 
arbitration. In arbitration, the represen¬ 
tative for the City of Pittsburgh would 
once again be the Mayor and the Mayor’s 
staff. It seems, then. Council entirely 
loses its role in negotiations and the 
only way it could play its role would 
be to participate in the first instance 
in the negotiation procedure. The only 
way that can happen is if the Mayor 
recognizes the Labor Sub-committee or 
appoints somebody from Council to serve 
on the City’s negotiating team. His 
failure to do so removes whatever pos¬ 
ture City Council can demonstrate initi¬ 
ally and we wind up being in the posi¬ 
tion with the resolution being placed 
before us with no latitude whatsoever. 
While I will vote for this resolution 
today, since it seems like the only thing 
open to me, I am disappointed with the 
way it has been handled by the Admin¬ 
istration.

Mr. Lynch moved 

The adoption of the resolution. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Shields presented 

Bill No. 813. Whereas, it has 
pleased Almighty God, in his infinite 
wisdom, to have removed from our midst, 
by death, Dr. Alma Illery, founder of 
Camp Achievement and the Achievement 
Clubs of America, and 

Whereas, her death has brought great 
sorrow to the hearts of her relatives, 
friends, acquaintances and recipients of 
her charitable efforts, and has cast 
gloom upon the entire community ex¬ 
tending far beyond the boundaries of 
Pittsburgh, and 

Whereas, Dr. Illery demonstrated 
boundless vision and foresight in her 
fight to dignify black leadership and to 
eliminate racial and religious prejudice 
by the simple expedient of working with 
and helping all people in an agressive 
and constructive manner, and 

Whereas, Dr. Illery achieved national 
recognition for her efforts in establish¬ 
ing George Washington Carver Day. 

Whereas, the members of Chy Council 
who knew about and joined her in civic 
and charitable pursuits, appreciative of 
her untiring energy and self-sacrificing 
dedication to the needs of numanity, 
desire to formally record upon the offic¬ 
ial min utes of the Council of the City of 
Pittsburgh a lasting tribute to the 
memory of this outstanding citizen. 

Therefore, be it 

RESOLVED, That the Mayor and the 
members of the Council of the City of 
Pittsburgh do hereby express their grief 
and sorrow over the death of Dr. Alma 
Illery; and be it further 

RESOLVED, That the Mayor and the 
members of the Council of the City of 
Pittsburgh extend their sincere sympathy 
to the bereaved family; that this resolu¬ 
tion be spread upon the minutes of 
Council, and that a copy be forwarded 
to her family.

weeks. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Shields: 

Mr. President, we have quite a 
problem on the City Planning Commis¬ 
sion by reason of an inability to gain 
a quorum. We have before us two bills 
calling for appointments of William 
McClung and Mr. Young. In keeping 
with our order of business, we have 
received resumes’ on these gentlemen 
and I would move these bills, Bill Nos. 
596 and 598, previously tabled, be re¬ 
moved from the table. 

Mr. Fagan: 

Seconded the motion. 


The Chair: 

It has been properly moved and 
seconded to take Bill Nos. 596 and 598 
from the table, and the Clerk will call 
the roll. 

And the roll being called, the ayes and 
noes were taken, agreeably to law, and

Miss Ballinger Mr. Lynch 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Michaels 

Mr, Fagan Mr. Shields 

Mr. Kamyk Mr. Mason 

(Pres’t) 

Ayes 8. Noes none. 

And a majority of the votes of Coun¬ 
cil being in the affirmative, the motion 
carried and the bills were lifted from 
the table. 

Mr. Shields presented 

Bill No. 596. RESOLVED, That 
the appointment by the Mayor of Will¬ 
iam McClung of 105 Broadcrest Drive, 
be and the same is hereby approved and 


confirmed as a member of the City 
Planning Commission. 

Which was read. 

Mr. Shields moved 

The adoption of the resolution. 

And the roll being called, the ayes and 
noes were taken, agreeably to law, and 
were: 

Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger Mr. Lynch 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Shields

And a majority of the votes of Coun¬ 
cil being in the affirmative, the appoint¬ 
ment of Mr. McClung was approved. 

Also,

the appointment by the Mayor of Louis 
E. Young of 1145 West Point Avenue, 
be and the same is hereby approved and 
confirmed as a member of the City Plan¬ 
ning Commission. 

Which was read. 

Mr. Shields moved 

The adoption of the resolution.

noes were taken, agreeably to law, and 
were: 

Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger Mr, Lynch 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Shields

Mr. Kamyk (Pres’t) 

Ayes 7. Noes One. 

(Mr. Michaels voting “No”). 

And a majority of the votes of Coun¬ 
cil being in the affirmative, the appoint¬ 
ment of Mr. Young was approved. 

Mr. Michaels: 

On June 5, I called upon the 


317 




Flaherty Administration to choose only 
the most qualified people to serve on 
governmental and quasi-governmental 
boards. I pointed out that his appoint¬ 
ments and dismissals had not been in 
the best interests of the people of Pitts¬ 
burgh. 

Because the situation has not im¬ 
proved and may, in fact, have deterio¬ 
rated, I call on the Administration again, 
this time with specific recommendations 
on what the makeup of the City Plan¬ 
ning Commission should be and what 
individual qualities should be sought 
from those appointed. 

If, as it appears, we are to use com¬ 
mission appointments as rewards for 
community service or political loyalty, 
then let's stop fooling ourselves. Let’s 
acknowledge that the participant’s roles 
are ceremonial, not actual. Let's make 
the commission simply a repository for 
people of good works and right politics. 
And let’s divorce it officially from the 
City Planning decision making process! 

I say this not with tongue-in-cheek, 
but with full realization of the far 
reaching Impact of City Planning decis¬ 
ions and recommendations on every as¬ 
pect of community life: economics, rede¬ 
velopment, relocation, education, enviro- 
ment, architecture, recreation, transpor¬ 
tation — and on through the whole 
gamut. These are areas in which one 
does not become knowledgeable by acci¬ 
dent. Without specific education and 
experience good intentions alone cannot 
produce results. 

City Planning is unique in that it is 
an official commission within cty govern¬ 
ment which uses the talents of private 
citizens—talents which ordinarily would 
not be available to government. It is 
the responsibility of City Planning Com¬ 
mission members to provide direction 
and advice to the professional staff, 
not the reverse. 

So, who should be chosen? People 
whose training and experience spans the 
relevant professional disciplines. People 
who are well versed in several areas 
and familiar with the others. We need 
hard experience in architecture, engi¬ 
neering, education, sociology, business, 
banking, law, real estate, psychology, and 
public health. Moreover, in a city as 
diverse as ours, we ought to be able to 


get this professional cross section and 
still have adequate ethnic, racial and 
geographic representation. 

Mr. Kaunk moved 

That Mr. DePasquale be excused 
for absence from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Michaels: 

I wish to make part of the 
record a letter sent to the Mayor on 
July 31, 1972, over my signature, which 
reads as follows: 

"Honorable Peter F. Flaherty

Miss Ballinger: 

Mr. Chairman, would you direct 
the City Clerk to write a letter to 
Churchill Kohlman, Executive Director 
of the Housing Authority of the City 
of Pittsburgh, asking him to explain the 
reason for not awarding the contract 
to the lowest bidder on the Glen-Hazel 
Project work. I would like to have a 
written report as soon as possible. 


Mr. DePasquale: 

Mr. Chairman, I would like to 
commend the Parking Lot Attendants 
and the Parking Lot Owners for reach¬ 
ing an agreement to settle their wage 
dispute after only three days of nego¬ 
tiations. Mr. Gardner, of the union, and 
Mr. Stabile, of the lot owners, have acted 
in the best interest of the many Pitts¬ 
burghers who use parking facilities. 

The Mayor stated the other day that 
the 20% Pittsburgh Parking Tax is the 
fairest and lowest in the United States. 
The Pittsburgh Press survey shows that 
no other city has the tax, with the 
exception of Philadelphia—and theirs is 


Mr. Lynch 
Mr. Michaels 
Mr. Shields 

Mr. Mason 

(Pres't) 


337 




only 10% or half of the parking tax we 
impose. 

I would like to go on record stating 
that I will do my utmost to adjust this 
Tax in order to give the Parking Lot 
owners some relief. 


The Chair: 

I concur with Mr. DePasquale’s 
remarks and would like to add that the 
Mayor and his staff should have taken 
some steps to bring the two factions 
together and try to solve the problem, 
instead of conducting a namecalling 
tirade at the owners whom he called 
“Special Interest Group” and also calling 
the strike a “Shutout” and “Sweetheart 
Contract.” I am happy that the strike 
has ended. 


Mr. Fagan moved 

That this meeting of Council be 
recessed until after the meeting of the 
Committee on Finance. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And Council recessed. 


And the hour of recess having expired, 
Council reconvened. 

Mr. Lynch moved 

To adjourn this meeting of 

Council. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And Council adjourned.

Miss Ballinger: 

Mr. Chairman, I want to make 
a statement for the record regarding 
and relative to the bid that was given 
to the Ryan Homes people by the Pitts¬ 
burgh Housing Authority. I received a 
two or three page reply and I am not 
satisfied with the investigation or with 
Mr. Churchill Kohlman’s actions on this. 
In his letter he states, “Regarding your 
letter of August 23rd, we would like to 
call your attention that the Housing 
Authority asked for and received no bids 
and has awarded no contracts. We 
simply named Ryan Homes as the low- 
rise developer so that an effort can be 
made which would move in the direc¬ 
tion of final approval and hopefully, 
a final contract down the road. As you 
know there was a clause in Lhormer’s 
proposal (which our board had in its 
hands at the time they made its deci¬ 
sion) which made it impossible to con¬ 
sider his proposal,” etc. 

Now, Mr. Kohlman says that they, the 
Housing Authority, did not award the 
contract to the Ryan Homes but they 
did because I have here a clipping from 
the newspaper which states that the 
Fifteen Million Dollar contract was 
awarded to Ryan Homes and they were 
not the low bidder. The Lhormer Real 
Estate Agency was the lowest bidder 
and they did not get the contract. I 
have here a 150 page reply from the 
Lhormer Real Estate with diagrams and 
maps and everything as compared to 
the two page letter from Mr. Kohlman. 

I would like to ask that City Council 
hold a public hearing on this so that 
we can find out why the bid went to 
Ryan Homes Company. In the paper 
yesterday it says, “Ryan Homes awarded 
Glen Hazel 195 Housing Unit and the 
housing authorized will be built by the 
Ryan Homes Company. 


The Chair: 

Miss Ballinger, while your testi¬ 
mony is well taken, I think you are out 
of order. I’m afraid it would come 
under another faction and that would 
be under the public hearings. Whenever 
that hearing is scheduled that’s when 
you will present your testimony. 

Miss Ballinger: 

Before I sit down, Mr. Chair¬ 
man, I would like to welcome you back 
from the hospital and I am glad to see 
you doing so well. 

The Chair: 

Thank you, Miss Ballinger. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. Chairman, I, along with 
Miss Ballinger, also want to welcome 
you back from the hospital. 

Now, on a point of information that 
we have received, we haven't had an 
opportunity to discuss, nor did the ad¬ 
ministration disclose what they are do¬ 
ing about two very serious problems that 
the City faces, namely, the East Street 
Valley project and rapid transit. I would 
venture to say that these problems are 
more important, I believe, than what 
was in the introduction of a six year 
development program. 

All things considered, I can’t really 
determine whether or not the making 
of that document is purely a public 
relations document submitted for the 
benefit of the Flaherty administration 
or whether truly they don’t know what 
are the significant issues. 

I think it will appear on East Street 
that what they have implemented in 
that document does not represent a sec¬ 
tion of Pittsburgh and according to the 
information contained in that document, 
the administration’s plan does not even 
metion East Street, so obviously it does 
not intend to cope with the East Street 
problem for the next few years. We 
certainly have to recognize the develop¬ 
ment expense behind this and I think 
the planners ought to come forth just 
as soon as possible and discuss the most 
recent moratorium established by the 


351 



Mayor or the attitude of the Pennsyl¬ 
vania Department of Transportation and 
see if they want to ameliorate the plight 
of the people of the East Street Valley 
and the people up there on the slope 
area. 

Since it appears that the state and 
Federal governments cannot help the 
people on the slopes, then it becomes 
the responsibility of the City to do so. 
This six year development program 
should contain money to relocate these 
families if no such help is forthcoming 
from the state and federal governments. 
We know full well that these people will 
continue to suffer and that nothing will 
be done if the City does not take the 
initiative and we must take the lead in 
alleviating the plight of some 500 fami¬ 
lies on the slopes of the East Street 
Valley, even if it means spending fifteen 
million dollars in City money to re¬ 
locate them. 

We talk about improving the quality 
of life in the City of Pittsburgh. The 
quality of life should be improved and 
we can do that by dealing with these 
problems. In the document the Mayor 
talks about problems. I know the prob¬ 
lems but what is the solution. I believe 
that City Council ought to consider the 
problem of East Street before consider¬ 
ing other problems relatively unimpor¬ 
tant to the life style of all of us. 

Second of all, it talks about a six 
year development program but it says 
nothing about mass transit. 

I think this should also be discussed 


and I would ask Council to call together 
state and federal officials for another 
hearing on the East Street problem to 
determine what role the City must as¬ 
sume in finding a solution. 

The Chair: 

Mr. Michaels, if I am correct, 
the report was not delivered to mem¬ 
bers of City Council until Friday after¬ 
noon about a quarter to three. The 
difficulty is that we have not had a 
chance to read it, at least I didn’t come 
to the office. I suppose some of you 
have had a chance to read it. Your 
remarks are well taken, Mr. Michaels 
and just as soon as I can, I will read 
the report. 

Mir. Michaels: 

Mr. Chairman, if you wish to 
defer action on my recommendation— 

The Chair: 

I don’t wish to defer action, I 
am only making an observation. 

Mr. DePasquale moved 

That this meeting of Council 
adjourn with a moment of silent prayer 
in memory of those members of the 
Israeli Olympic Team who were assassi¬ 
nated by criminals and savages. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And Council adjourned.

That in accord with past prac¬

Mr. Lynch: 

I would like, Mr. President, to 
make a request of the City Clerk. I 
read in the paper that the garbage col¬ 
lection will go into a night shift. This 
is not going to disturb anybody because 
they’re going to be quiet. That will be 
a first, to upset a garbage can quietly. 

I would like Mr. Edkins to answer 
some questions for me. I have difficulty 
getting him to answer questions so that 
I can understand him; X hear the music 
and none of the words. 

I wonder if I could get him to give 
a written report to this Council answer¬ 
ing five questions as to how many men 
will be on the night shift now? 


Secondly, how long will this procedure 
continue? 

Thirdly, how many trucks are on order 
and when does he expect them to be 
delivered? 

Since when were they ordered and, five 

What steps has Mr. Edkins taken in 
order to effect proper planning to in¬ 
sure our citizens will not again be sub¬ 
jected to this inconvenience and har- 
rassment? 

I would like to have that report 
delivered to Council for the next legis¬ 
lative meeting. 

Mr. Kainyk moved 

That Messrs. DePasquale, Fagan 
and Michaels be excused for absence

Mr. Michaels: 

I would like to speak to the 
bill. This bill, which involves $2 mil¬ 
lion in neighborhood housing develop¬ 
ment projects is one which will require 
a cooperation agreement between the 
City of Pittsburgh and URA and by the 
City of Pittsburgh, we of course know 
that is both the Mayor and City Coun¬ 
cil. I am apprehensive of this bill. While 
I agree entirely in principle, the fact is 
it lends certain responsibility on 
Council without any authority. 

I wish to remind everybody that on 
September 12, we received from the Ex¬ 
ecutive Director of URA the bill of par¬ 
ticulars as to exactly what they intend 
to do in presenting this kind of pro¬ 
gram for the benefit of the City. We 


386 




all recognize a $2 m illion program was 
not formulated in some two weeks but 
required some long range planning on 
the part of the staff of the Authority 
and during this long range planning, I 
don’t believe City Council was properly 
notified nor consulted in an agreement 
to which we certainly would be a party. 

I would like to remind the Adminis¬ 
tration, the Urban Redevelopment Au¬ 
thority and remind ourselves, in the old 
days, I think we could look always back 
talking of old days, but not too long 
ago, the director and acting director and 
other representatives were extensively 
Involved in the planning process. Now, 
we only receive the final work of the 
Authority and its staff whloh doesn’t 
allow us to have any input during the 
period of formulation so that we are 
sort of in a position at the end where 
we have not much option but to agree 
to the plan in total because we recog¬ 
nize it certainly has positive planning 
for the City of Pittsburgh. 

Yet, there seems to be no input from 
Council although we must assume a re¬ 
sponsibility. When we get that respon¬ 
sibility, then we must respond to the 
neighborhoods coming in wanting to 
know what’s going on and why it’s being 
done that way, and all the other ques¬ 
tions they ask. 

Also, X am concerned that the URA 
Board has been established which In¬ 
cludes two employees of the Mayor and 
some public members, some of whom 
are well known to us and some not 
known, or scarcely known to us at all. 
If they’re not known to we members of 
Council, they’re certainly not known to 
the community at large and this is a 
problem. At one time, there were mem¬ 
bers of Council on the URA Board and 
I say, if we’re into this cooperation 
agreement then either both members of 
the Mayor’s staff and members of this 
Council should be with Urban Redevel¬ 
opment Authority or, if we decide the 
Board shall be an outside Authority, let 
all members come from outside City 
government and elected officials or staff 
members. Then we’ll know there will 
not be any economic sanctions for any 
member of that Board if he doesn’t 
choose to carry out the Mayor’s bidding. 
We have seen the URA Board work in 


the political arena exactly the opposite 
to the wishes of this Council and yet 
they come back and ask for a coopera¬ 
tion agreement. 

I would like to know why this was 
brought before Council a short three 
weeks ago with programs that encom¬ 
pass practically every member of Pitts¬ 
burgh. There are two members of the 
Mayor’s office on this Board. Perhaps 
there was a need for a moment to make 
quick appointments but since they are 
directly under his supervision, It seems 
to me he should look around and take 
his two cabinet members’ positions and 
have them removed from that Board. 

I think these are the kinds of ques¬ 
tions Council has to ask. I think, par¬ 
enthetically, I am not against it, but I 
think it is a proper time to bring up 
these issues. 


Also, 

Bill No. 963. WHEREAS, as of 
May 22, 1972, the Department of Com¬ 
munity Affairs has adopted Regula¬ 
tions for the State Urban Redevelopment 
Assistance Program regulating the appli¬ 
cation of capital grants to redevelop¬ 
ment authorities to implement the Ur¬ 
ban Redevelopment Law of 1946 and the 
Housing and Redevelopment Assistance 
Law of 1955; and 

WHEREAS, the Regulations provide 
for the use by authorities of Certifi¬ 
cates of Compliance in order to mini¬ 
mize documentation and submission re¬ 
quirements; and 

WHEREAS, the Urban Redevelopment 
Authority of Pittsburgh is undertaking 
a program under the Neighborhood 
Housing Fund for the creation of new 
housing within all Wards of the City of 
Pittsburgh; and 

WHEREAS, the Regulations require 
the formal adoption by the Council of 
the City of Pittsburgh of the require¬ 
ments of the Certificate of Compliance 
to be filed by the Authority. 

NOW, THEREFORE, be It resolved 
that the Council of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh adopts the requirements for the 
Certificate of Compliance as set forth 
in the Regulations issued by the De- 


387 



partment of Community Affairs of the 
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and au¬ 
thorizes the Urban Redevelopment Au¬ 
thority of Pittsburgh to file such Cer¬ 
tificate with the Department of Com¬ 
munity Affairs in respect to the pro¬ 
gram being undertaken under the 
Neighborhood Housing Fund, Said re¬

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 
Mr. DePasquale: 

Mr. President, I would like at 
this time, to call your attention to an 
editorial that was telecast several times 
on September 15th and 16th by Mr. Wal¬ 
lace, Vice President of Westinghouse 
Broadcasting on Channel 2. 

The editorial, I thought, maligned and 
unjustly accused us of apathy. In fact, 
the charges were rather malicious and I 
think an answer should be forthcoming 


from you to Mr. Wallace in respect to 
Council. 

I don’t know if you had a chance to 
read the article. 


The Chair: 

Yes, I read it. 


Mr. DePasquale: 

I still feel that an answer 
should be forthcoming. 


Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. President, I would like Mr. 
DePasquale to clearly understand that 
I think every Councilman is In a posi¬ 
tion to speak for himself regarding the 
editorial and I prefer to speak for my¬ 
self. 


The Chair: 

The editorial is duly noted for 
the record and in this case we will re¬ 
spond individually. As I said, I did 
read it. 


Mr. Lynch moved 

That Miss Ballinger be excused 
for absence from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 


Mr. Caliguiri moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, Oct. 2, 1972, be approved.

Honorable Members of City Council 

Dear Members of City Council: 

Subject: Special Legislative meeting 
of City Council to investigate 
the cost and reason for the 
Flower Show being put in the 
lobby of the City County Build¬ 
ing by the Mayor 

At the meeting of the Committees of 
Council today, by unanimous consent of

special meeting. 

Please be advised that I have sched¬ 
uled this meeting as follows: 

Friday, October 20, 1972, at 11:30 
o’clock, a.m., DST Council Cham¬ 
bers of the City of Pittsburgh 

I would appreciate your affixing your

you will be present. 

Yours very truly,

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 
Mr. Caliguiri: 

Mr. President: 

Since our last meeting this past 













Wednesday, in discussing once again the 
Flower Show, it is certainly Council’s 
intention that the Flower Show be held 
in Phipps Conservatory, because as you 
know, you cannot put on the type of 
Flower Show that has been held in the 
past down in City Hall. 

I have been checking these last cou¬ 
ple of days and I find that there is not 
enough time to put on the Flower Show 
that is normally held in Phipps Con¬ 
servatory, back into Phipps Conserva¬ 
tory. Therefore, at least we want to see 
some type of Flower Show. 

Since Wednesday, I have also found 
out that the parking problems exist and 
there is some controversy as to whether 
or not there is going to be free parking 
or whether there is going to be any 
parking at all, in the downtown Pitts¬ 
burgh. I have also found out that there 
has been at least 10,000 Mums grown 
out In Phipps Conservatory and I think 
downstairs can only facilitate something 
like 4,000 and it may very well be that 
those Mums brought In from Phipps 
Conservatory may put on something 
that looks like a Flower Show. 

Once again I say, and I am not against 
it, but the people are going to be cheat¬ 
ed out of the normal type of Flower 
Show that we have known in the past. 


neering perfection that is necessary for 
the heating and lighting so that each 
plant is shown at peak perfection in 
growth and color is commonplace at 
Phipps Conservatory. 

TEREFORE, BE IT 

RESOLVED, that it is the desire of 
the Council of the City of Pittsburgh 
that the City of Pittsburgh Annual 
Flower Show, beginning with the Spring 
of 1973, again be exhibited at Phipps 
Conservatory. 

Which was read. 


Mr. Caliguiri moved 

That the resolution be adopted. 


Mr. DePasquale 

Seconded the motion. 

And the roll being called, the ayes and 
noes were taken, agreeably to law, and 
were; 


Ayes:— 

Miss Ballinger 
Mr. Caliguiri 
Mr. DePasquale 
Mr. Fagan 


Mr. Kamyk 
Mr. Lynch 
Mr. Michaels 
Mr. Mason 
(Pres’t) 


So, with these comments, I would like 
to introduce this resolution. 

Mr. Caliguiri presented 

Bill No. 1067. WHEREAS, the 
Annual Flower Show of the City of 
Pittsburgh is to be held in the Lobby of 
the City-County Building at an addi¬ 
tional cost and inconvenience to the 
taxpayers of the City; and 

WHEREAS, the Council of the City of 
Pittsburgh has enacted several pieces of 
legislation in the recent past to rehabil¬ 
itate and further beautify Phipps Con¬ 
servatory, which expenditures were nec¬ 
essary for the enhancement and service 
of the thousands of citizens who love 
and enjoy the beauty of the Flower 
Shows; and 


Ayes 8. Noes none. 

And a majority of the votes of Coun¬ 
cil being in the affirmative, the bill was 
adopted. 


Mr. Kamyk moved 

That Mr. Shields be excused 
from absence at this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. DePasquale moved 

That this meeting be adjourned 
and the next legislative meeting of 
Council be on Tuesday, October 24, 1972 
at 2 o’clock, F.M. (D.S.T.).

Which was read. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, might we have a 
clarification of what a vote “AYE” in- 
indicates? 


Mr. Mason: 

The Chairman of the Commit¬ 
tee reported this out as a negative rec¬ 
ommendation. If we vote, "Yes,** then 
we’re voting for the negative recommen¬ 
dation. If we vote ‘ No,” we’re voting 
against the negative recommendation. In 
other words, the recommendation of the 
Chairman was, "No,” and if we vote 
"Yes,” we’re supporting his negative rec¬ 
ommendation. 

Mr. Shields: 

Mr. President, if I may, with 
your indulgence and with the indulg¬ 
ence of my colleagues, I would like to 
make a statement before any vote is 
cast, if I am permitted, 


My intention is to vote, "No.” I'm in 
favor of the one-way traffic system we 
have, the same way I voted in Commit¬ 
tee, and I feel the same way today. The 
reason I asked for the opportunity to 
speak before the final vote is taken is 
just, again, to express my feelings about 
it. We have been concerned about mass 
transit and rapid transit and yet, noth¬ 
ing has been done. We are involved in 
legal and political matters that have 
held It up, but this has b?en just a 
small effort in that direction and it 
does offer, in my estimation, some im¬ 
provement. There is faster flow of 
traffic on Forbes and on Fifth Avenue. 
It has been bottlenecked at times, I 
realize that, and I think it will continue 
to he bottlenecked because of the na¬ 
ture of our traffic flow during heavy 
traffio hours. , 

In spite of that, in the brief 120-day 
period of trial, we must realize, and I 
urge my colleagues to think about the 
fact, that trial period was greatly ham¬ 
pered by repair and street improvement 
made on both streets at the time of the 
trial period. I realize that it has been 
an inconvenience to some people, to a 
few people. I’m sure the elderly have 
been inconvenienced; I’m sure the res¬ 
idents of Oakland have been inconveni¬ 
enced. On the other hand, what great, 
major effort, or any effort for change, 
has been made without inconvenience to 
a few which sometimes we must balance 
against the general good to the people 
by reason of the change. 

Information has come to me to the ef¬ 
fect that many of the merchants, and I 
think it is obvious from correspondence 
I have received, that many of the mer¬ 
chants had form letters printed, and 
had people’s signatures who perhaps 
didn’t even know what they were sign¬ 
ing. Add that to the general feeling 
that those who are anti are generally 
more vocal than those who are for. We 
have heard certainly from those who 
were opposed to the one-way system and 
are just beginning to hear in number 
from those who are for the present one¬ 
way system. 

These things, I think, ought to be 
taken into consideration and I would 
firmly suggest, not a motion but a sug¬ 
gestion, that this matter deserves fur¬ 
ther study, deserves further considera- 


424 



tion, and that it might be best to send 
it back to committee. 

Mr. DePasquale: 

Mr. President, as a resident of 
the area, I have to say during the test¬ 
ing period, for the most part of it, the 
students of Pitt and Carnegie Mellon 
and the other schools were out, during 
June, July and August and most of Sep¬ 
tember and even then, the traffic did 
not flow too freely. Since the students 
are back in school, it is impossible. We 
are not concerned with the merchants 
of Oakland, although certainly they are 
in our thoughts. It is the residents of 
the area who are inconvenienced and the 
buses and traffic coming on to Forbes 
and Fifth Avenues and when you have 
signatures of 2,000 such residents of the 
Uptown area, you know it was they who 
were inconvenienced. 

I personally received only two letters 
in regards to retaining the one-way pat¬ 
tern: one from Fisher Scientific, located 
Uptown, and the other from Childrens 
Hospital and I understand Mr. Fisher is 
either Chairman of that Board or is on 
the board. I received no other letters 
and no calls. Since we have voted on 
the two-way street, some people have 
voiced the opinion that they thought we 
should continue the one-way pattern but 
overwhelmingly the mail and calls were 
for the two-way street, 

Mr. Lynch: 

In addition to the mail, we have 
testimony from responsible neighborhood 
groups, one the Public Safety Commit¬ 
tee of Model Cities, testifying that the 
neighborhood groups involved here are 
strongly in favor of the two-way street. 
While it is true we are dealing with the 
interests of a few people, those are the 
people who elected us to serve their in- 
trests. It seems clear the people in the 
City of Pittsburgh prefer this to be a 
two-way street, in addition to which a 
two-way street on those streets will con¬ 
tinue to preserve the traditional neigh¬ 
borhoods along those streets. 

I won’t argue that ultimately mass 
transit or rapid transit at some future 
date may call for a reallignment of 
these streets, but that the two major 


eastbound arteries being one way is in 
any way conducive for an effective mass 
transit sy_tem does not necessarily fol¬ 
low and therefore I remain convinced to 
support the motion would be a responsi¬ 
ble vote. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Since our committee meeting on 
this subject last week, I have had fur¬ 
ther phone calls and correspondence 
concerning this matter. I think we are 
all aware of the statement by the Dis¬ 
trict Engineer for PennDot as to the 
gravity of this situation as it applies to 
the new bridge from the South Side to 
Forbes and Fifth Avenues. If you re¬ 
call, last week I spoke to that problem 
and said I don’t believe going back to 
the two-way operation of Forbes and 
Fifth Avenues would necessarily correct 
the problem nor, in fact, did the one¬ 
way trial correct the problem. I think 
we have a situation of a heavy, walking 
population in a very densely populated 
neighborhood in the Oakland area that 
is further plagued by a lot of motorists 
going through it to get to other parts of 
the City. Oakland is not the point of 
origin or designation but in trying to 
get to East Liberty or Shadyside, go 
through the Oakland area. 

Opposition to the two-way operation 
in the mail did not come from residents, 
but people who use these arteries as a 
method of getting from one end of the 
City to the other. I would hope we 
would give this some long range think¬ 
ing. The Pennsylvania Transportation 
Department treats Pittsburgh as a step¬ 
child. They have a responsibility for the 
bridge and a responsibility as to where 
that traffic flows on to. What we have 
to talk about is a bypass road so that 
coming off the Parkway and the Boule¬ 
vard of the Allies and the 22nd Street 
Bridge they bypass Oakland to get to 
Shadyside and East Liberty, which is the 
objective of the people crowding that 
Oakland area and until that is done, I 
see no reason why the residents ought 
not to have what they wish—the two- 
way operation. 

And on the question, “Shall the neg¬ 
ative recommendation be agreed to?*’ 

The ayes and noes were taken, accord¬

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

Mr. President, in the past sev¬ 
eral weeks, a couple of our corporations 
in the City of Pittsburgh have indicated 
they might go out of business or sell 
their businesses. I’m talking about Du- 
quesne Brewery and J&L, etc. Some ov¬ 
ertures have been made to them by 
elected officials and other governmental 
agencies trying to keep these businesses 
in the City. I would like to make a 
motion that City Council stands ready 
and willing to try and help them con¬ 
tinue to keep their firms here in the 
City and that a committee be formed 
that all of us can serve on to meet with 
these people and see if there is any¬ 
thing we can do prior to them leaving 
or selling their businesses. We must give 
them some incentive to stay In Pitts¬ 
burgh, We are dealing with about 600 
Duquesne Brewery employees and may¬ 
be ten times more with J&L. 

I believe it is incumbent upon all of 
us here and all concerned, that we try 
to do something along with other offi¬ 
cials to show that City Council is ready 
to try and work out solutions to keep 
them in Pittsburgh. Perhaps the com¬ 
mittee, by letter, could indicate to the 
company officials we will meet with 
them in City Council or at their plants, 
talk with them, find out what their 
concerns are, and see if there is any¬ 
thing we can possibly do to keep them 
here in Pittsburgh 

I move that the motion be approved 
by Council that a committee be estab¬ 
lished to approach all firms, such as 
Duquesne Brewery and J&L, that are in 
jeopardy of leaving or going out of 
business in Pittsburgh to give them all 


450 





the assistance necessary to continue 
their existence in Pittsburgh which will 
ultimately keep our people working. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Mason: 

It seems to me that elected 
officials belatedly have joined the hue 
and cry of what we’re losing. No one 
said anything with any elected official 
at the time it happened, when J&L laid 
off 4,300, summer before last. This, to 
me, is a crime. Now, we’re getting ready 
to lose Allis Chalmers, Isaly’s is being 


bought, and Duquesne Brewery, and I 
think we must, beaause each of them 
has a bonafide contract with labor or¬ 
ganizations, also include labor organi¬ 
zation representatives in such meetings. 

Mr. Fagan moved 

That the Minutes of Monday, 
October 30, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mir. DePasquale, 
Council adjourned.

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I wcruld like to 
bring to the attention of this Council, 
what I believe is a deficiency in City 
law, which does not allow City Council 
to enter into contracts on its own. 

As you know, when we establish the 
budget each year, we establish certain 
funds for the use of Council. However, 
the use of those funds, which amounts 
to $1500 I believe, may not be done 
unless it passes the approval of the 
Chief Administrator of the City which 
would be the Mayor. Now, we may over¬ 
ride that veto on his part or we may not, 
depending on how many votes come out. 
It also, in certain instances, while enter¬ 
ing into a contract might be to the 
advantage of the City, if the Mayor does 
not deem it so, he need not then execute 
it. I believe this is a deficiency in the 
law. There are ordinances on the books 
which could be changed by this Council 
that would turn that around. 

It seems to me that we ought to have 
the Chy Solicitor appear before Council 
to explain the law as it presently exists 
and what remedy City Council might 
take to change it. After all, we are 
aware that the Mayor does not com¬ 
municate with us on a regular basis 
and there is no reason to believe that 
he might agree with us with regard to 
certain contracts that we would enter 
into on our own. So, therefore, if Coun¬ 
cil is to take the position of leadership 
for the City, we ought to be prepared 
to move on our own contracts. 

Also, it has come to my attention that 
the preparation of legislation with the 
cooperation of the Solicitor’s office does 
not come about as easily as the prepara¬ 
tion of legislation by the various depart¬ 
ment heads. That ought to be remedied 
and there ought to be either the City 
Solicitor himself or a member of his 
staff whom any Councilman may go to 
for consultation in regard to legislation 
and get a proper reply. I don’t think 
replies come as promptly to us as they 
do to various members of the Adminis¬ 
tration. I then ask that the Solicitor 
be asked to appear before us on Wed¬ 
nesday and generally describe these 
laws as they apply to contracts with the 


City of Pittsburgh and by what remedy 
City Council can change them. 

I would be glad to hear any other 
comments that any Councilman would 
like to make and if so, I think it would 
be proper at this time. 

The Chafer: 

This will be duly noted Mr. 
Michaels, and the City Clerk will take 
the proper action. 

Are there any other motions and reso¬ 
lutions? 

ftfir. Galigulri: 

Mr. President, this past week we 
have had some infromation before us 
relative to the asphalt program and the 
possibility that there may have been 
asphalt laid in our City streets of an 
inferior quality and also the possibility 
of asphalt being laid in adverse weather 
conditions. 

I would recommend to City Council 
that a letter be directed to Mr. Edkins, 
Department of Public Works and also 
to Richard Hyde who is in charge of 
our testing laboratory; that /they bring 
the necessary records of asphalt quality 
tests; also records showing times that 
they have worked and under what 
weather conditions that they laid this 
asphalt; also, the records of Mr. Edkins 
as to the cost per ton laid in asphalt 
this year. We have been asking tor these 
papers and we have silently come to the 
end of our season and I would like to 
know how much it is costing to lay our 
asphalt. 

I would ask that these gentlemen be 
present here on Wednesday morning at 
our Finance Committee session and I 
would like to see these letters out this 
afternoon. 

Which motion prevailed. 

The Chair: 

Mr. City Clerk will you duly 
notify said parties to be present at our 
Finance Committee meeting on Wednes¬ 
day morning. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

The second motion that I would 


461 




The Chair: 


like to make is tlie follow up of last 
week’s motion that the City look into 
or investigate corporations that are leav¬ 
ing or who are having problems in the 
City of Pittsburgh. We know that this 
past week, J & L has been having prob¬ 
lems. I have been in touch with the 
union leader at the Hazelwood plant. 

I would like a letter drafted by Coun¬ 
cil to both John DeFazio and the Board 
Chairman of J & L by inviting them here 
or that a committee from Council go to 
their plant or offices to sit down with 
them to determine just what the diffi¬ 
culties are and whether or not Council 
can, in any way, help with this prob¬ 
lem of lay-offs that is now occurring 
at J&L Pittsburgh works. 

I think a committee should be formed 
to do this. 


Mr. Caliguiri, would you serve 
as Chairman of that committee along 
with Mr. Lynch and Mr. Michaels. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

I would be happy to, Mr. Presi¬ 
dent. 

Mr. Lynch moved 

That Mr. Fagan be excused for 
absence from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. Lynch. 

Council adjourned.

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. President, I recognize there 
are a number of interested citizens pres¬ 
ent today that are involved with the 
Police Widow’s Pension Fund. I might 
point out, Council was pleased to ef¬ 
fect a bill which is progressive in na¬ 
ture and long overdue in coming to 
solve a grave social and economic prob¬ 
lem for widows of people who have 
served the City so long and so well. 
However, it should be made clear that 
this bill does not become effective until 
January first. As I understand it, the 
women affected are out of money today. 
There is nothing the City do to solve 
that demand. I know a three-month 
period is going to be difficult. However, 
this is a self-liquidating fund. 

I am pleased we are able to pass the 
bill today.

MOTIONS & RESOLUTIONS 

Mr. DePasquale: 

I wanted to echo the sentiments 
of Councilman Lynch and the rest of 
Council. One other fact was brought 
out and I must confess ignorance of the 
fact that the firemen’s widows only re¬ 
ceive $30 a month and I was shocked. 
Maybe $100 a month is not enough but 
It is better than it was. Also, from 
these beautiful women, we have received 
several letters, all in very good taste and 
appropriate. Since I have been a Coun¬ 
cilman almost a year, it was the finest 
response we have received and I am 
glad to be part of this Council to have 
done such a humane thing for some 
wonderful people. 

Mr. Lynch moved 

That Miss Ballinger be excused 
for absence from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, November 6, 1972 and Monday, 
November 13, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. Fagan, 

Council adjourned.

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Miss Ballinger: 

Mr. Chairman, I just wanted to 
suggest that inasmuch as the case of the 
Mass Rapid Transit is coming before the 
Supreme Court on Wednesday, whether 
it would be worth while for this Coun¬ 
cil to issue a statement to again reaf¬ 
firm its position; how necessary it is for 
this City to have that rapid transit. 

Inasmuch as so many organizations 
have now gotten behind this great proj¬ 
ect, I wanted to bring this suggestion to 
City Council and wonder whether or not 
it was worth deliberating on. 

The Chair: 

That’s a timely remark but un¬ 
timely as to Motions and Resolutions. 

This properly belongs in a caucus in 
Council which I am prepared to call at 
9:15 on Wednesday morning. 


Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I concur with 
Councilwoman Ballinger. There is a 
resolution before this Council. It is a 
matter of record and I believe if Miss 
Ballinger wishes to make reference to 
that earlier resolution, I join with her in 
making that statement here today and 
there is no need for a caucus in my 
opinion. 

Miss Ballinger: 

But I think perhaps again it 
should be presented. 

The Chair: 

Pardon me, may I ask the gen- 
leman who just supplemented your re¬ 
marks, the solution to which you refer 
Mr. Michaels, can you state this as being 
the Early Action Program? 

Mr. Michaels: 

Yes. There is a resolution on 
the rolls of this Council which points 
out that we support the Early Action 
Program. 

The Chair: 

There is no question about that. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Okay. So if Miss Ballinger wish¬ 
es once again to bring to the public’s at¬ 
tention the attitude of this Council, then 
I join her in reminding the commu¬ 
nity of our action and the resolution of 
that date. 

Could the Clerk extract that from the 
records. 

The Chair: 

There is no problem in extract¬ 
ing it. I thought you were talking 
about the resolution subsequent to the 
action of this Council. 


Miss Ballinger: 

Mr. President, I move that, that 
resolution should be reaffirmed. 


Mr. Michaels 
Mr. Shields 
Mr. Mason 
(Pres’tj 


479 



The Chair: 

I would like to suggest that cer¬ 
tainly in light of a reminder by the City 
Clerk, we submitted said resolution in 
Philadelphia Court and we subsequently 
signed another resolution which will be 
offered in evidence at the Supreme Court 
hearing in Philadelphia on Wednesday. 
It is only a reiteration of what we have 
already done. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Could the Clerk read that into 
the minutes today? 

The Chair: 

It can be read. It’s no problem. 

Mr. Michaels: 

Read that into the minutes. 


Mr. Shields: 

Mr. Chairman, I can see nothing 
wrong in reading it into the minutes 
again, but in light of our previous pol¬ 
icy in not interfering with Court deci¬ 
sions in any other way except to take 
official steps which are required to take 
under the law and which in this case 
have already been taken. I think that 
we should abide by that law. Reading 
it into the minutes again is fine, noth¬ 
ing wrong in that. But as far as mak¬ 
ing a further resolution or passing a 
further motion on the subject, I think, 
makes it a little tenuous and is really 
unnecessary because this is a thing that 
we have already expressed ourselves upon 
and I am sure that the Supreme Court 
must have invited the value of the doc¬ 
ument to take into consideration when it 
moves or makes some decision on the 
case. 

The public aspect of it is pretty well 
known and I am not concerned about 
the reacquainting the public of our posi¬ 
tion. I think they are well aware of it 
and the results and an implication of 
this kind might adversely affect the 
thinking of the population in that we 
don’t want to make it a political issue. 
We 'just want to make it known that 
legislatively we have acted and we stand 
behind it. 


Mr. DePasquale: 

I don’t know what to say to 
concur with my colleagues in regard to 
the Mass Transit and I wonder if I am 
in order by stating that the people who 
will benefit the most from the Early Ac¬ 
tion or the Rapid Transit Plan or the 
Skybus, but it seems to be labor because 
of the very fact that it has to employ 


Mr. Michaels: 

Point of order, Mr. President. I 
don’t think we are here to argue the is¬ 
sue. I think that is a point at hand 
and we ought not to do that. All we are 
trying to do is to re-identify the position 
taken by this Council. If we are going 
to argue the issues, then we leave our¬ 
selves open to all kinds of statements 
and I think they are out of order. 


Mr. DePasquale: 

There has been a lot of pressure 
put on Council and at the same time 
there are three or four thousand jobs in¬ 
volved here and I think— 


Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I ask you to rule 
whether or not he is out of order. 


The Chair: 

Mr. DePasquale, you are out of 
order. We will take this up under an¬ 
other matter. I understand what you 
are saying. I know what you are saying. 


Mr. Kamyk: 

Mr. President, I agree with Mr. 
Shields. We are already on record legis¬ 
latively supporting the Early Action Pro¬ 
gram as far as the Mass Transit is con¬ 
cerned. And, I think the r: solutions that 
were sent to the Court in Philadelphia 
will be considered by the Supreme Court 
and then they will decide, I suppose, in 
the Supreme Court on the issue of the 
law. So, we are on record that we are 
supporting the Early Action Program, so 
I don’t think anything else is necessary.

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I am glad that 
you and the Clerk have brought to our 
attention that certain documents have 
gone forward from this body to the Su¬ 
preme Court. I think it would be a 
grave error of omission if we did not 
acknowledge at this time that this Coun¬ 
cil did forward such documents and that 
they be made a part of these minutes 
this day and I so move, Mr. President. 

Miss Ballinger: 

X second that motion. 

Which motion prevailed. 


The Chair: 

I would like the City Clerk to 
at least indicate what the documents are, 
in broad terms, without getting into de¬ 
tails. 


Mr. DiNardo: 

Resolution No. 295% — It was 
Council’s intent in the Early Action Pro¬ 
gram, Port Authority of Allegheny 
County. It was in Council October 26, 
1971, read and adopted. Louis Mason Jr M 
President. Louis DiNardo attest and it 
is in Volume 17, page 484. 


Another document that will appear be¬ 
fore the Supreme Court on Wednesday 
is Interstate Commerce Commission’s 
Affidavit and this was signed by LouiB 
Mason that the foregoing was true and 
correct. 

Ordinance 367 of 1959 — This is con¬ 
senting to the establishment of a lim¬ 
ited Access Highway. 

The Chair: 

That will be so entered into the 

record. 

Mr. DePasquale moved 

That Mr. Fagan and Mr. Lynch 
be excused for absence from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, November 20, 1972, be ap¬ 

proved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Miss Ballinger 
Council adjourned.

Vol. CVI Monday, December 4, 1972 No. 43 



ONE HUNDRED 
SEVENTEENTH COUNCIL 


LOUIS MASON, Jr.__President 

LOUIS C. DINARDO_City Clerk 

MICHAEL A. PERRY_Ass’t. City Clerk 

Pittsburgh., Pa. 

Monday, December 4, 1972 

Present:— 

Miss Ballinger Mr. Lynch 

Mr. Caliguiri Mr. Michaels 

Mr. DePasquale Mr. Shields 

Mr. Pagan Mr. Mason 

Mr. Kamyk (Pres’t) 

The meeting was opened by the reci¬ 
tation of the pledge of allegiance to the 
Flag of the United States of America. 

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the 
United States of America, and to the 
Republic for which it stands, one Nation, 
under God, indivisible, with liberty and 
justice for all. 

The Chair: 

The first order of business is 
the presentation of the Budget by the 
Mayor of the City of Pittsburgh. 

Would Mr. Kamyk and Mr. Shields 
kindly escort the Mayor to the podium. 

It Is now my pleasure to present the 
Mayor of the City of Pittsburgh, the 
Honorable Peter Francis Flaherty. 


Mayor Flaherty: 

Thank you, Mr. President, Mem¬ 
bers of Council, ladies and gentlemen: 

For the third consecutive year the City 
of Pittsburgh will end the year with a 
substantial cash surplus. For the second 
consecutive year the surplus will reflect 
a decrease In taxes for City taxpayers. 

We will end this year with a $13,5 
million surplus—the highest ever in the 
City’s history. I am recommending that 
this surplus be returned to the wage 
earners through the elimination of the 
City’s one percent wage tax. 

The City of Pittsburgh has long been 
in need of meaningful tax reform. In 
this budget, I am proposing a more 
equitable tax reform, first of all by re¬ 
moving the most oppressive tax we have 
in the City which is the wage tax. 

I am also proposing that we remove 
some other inequities in our tax struc¬ 
ture. 

.. . One of these requires the parking 
lot operators to pay a business privilege 
tax on top of the grors receipts of the 
parking tax. I will recommend and sub¬ 
mit legislation that the parking tax 
receipts be exeaipted from the Business 
Privilege tax to prevent a double tax. 

... At present home owners who fix 
up their homes toy making repairs and 
improvements are penalized by assess¬ 
ment procedures which actually increase 
their tax assessment immediately after 
improvements are added. I will recom¬ 
mend and submit legislation for a grace 
period where no tax assessment increase 
would toe made for three years after 
the improvements have been made. 

... Under the present law we ere now 
taxing live entertainment at restaurants 











and cabarets on a percentage formula. 
We also tax non-profit organizations for 
their annual dances on the basis of ad¬ 
mission charges. I will submit legisla¬ 
tion to amend this inequity in the City’s 
Amusement Tax. 

There will be many pressures placed 
on City Council by oJier groups seeking 
tax relief aid. Your first duty, however, 
is to the people of this City. Last year 
we granted tax relief to the entire com¬ 
munity, including residents and busi¬ 
ness when we reduced the real estate 
tax. Real estate rebates are now avail¬ 
able for senior citizens living on fixed 
incomes at a state level. I am also 
supporting federal legislation which will 
grant tax relief for our senior citizens 
at the local level. 

To provide information and assistance 
on tax relief assistance programs and 
other problems involving our senior 
citizens, an Office for Senior Citizens 
Will be opened in 1973 under the super¬ 
vision of the Mayor’s Office to provide 
such services. 

REVENUE SHARING 

The first payment of revenue sharing 
is expecLed this month. I am allocating 
$5.8 million into capital improvements. 
Of the $5.8 million, $3.3 million will be 
used in the high priority area of street 
lighting. Approximately 30 percent of 
the City’s streets have been illuminated 
with mercury vapor lighting ever the 
past three years. By accelerating this 
program with revenue sharing funds we 
will complete the lighting program 
throughout the entire City in 1973 in¬ 
stead of 1976. 

The balance of the 1973 revenue shar¬ 
ing (funds will be used for the improve¬ 
ment of fire equipment and Public 
Safety facilities and to update recrea¬ 
tional activities. In 1973 we will replace 
the outmoded No. 2 police and fire 
station in the Hill District with a new 
public safety facility and a new fire 
station will be built in Lawrenceville to 
replace No. 6 Engine House at 34th and 
Liberty and No. 25 Engine House located 
next to St. Francis Hospital. 

The balance of the 1972-73 federal 
revenue sharing funds totaling $14.5 
million will be allocated to the Public 
Safety operating budget. 


CRIME RATE AND POLICE 
PROTECTION 

Pittsburgh’s crime rate has decreased 
drastically in the pest three years. In 
1969 there were 33,700 serious crimes 
committed in the City of Pittsburgh. In 
1972, we had 23,629 serious crimes—a 
decrease of about 10,000 crimes and a 
percentage reduction from 1969 to 1972 
of 30 percent. 

The apprehension rate of criminals in 
the City is increasing and is 6.7 percent 
higher than the national average. 

Vice arreats including narcotics viola¬ 
tions have increased by eight percent 
over 1971. 

A national police survey—comparing 
Pittsburgh, with all other American cities 
in the 500,000 population range—places 
Pittsburgh at the top in police personnel 
with 3.14 police officers for every 1000 
citizens. 

HOUSING 

In 1973 we will continue to make the 
fullest use of existing Federal Hou ing 
programs. We have worked with pri¬ 
vate developers and community groups 
to put together proposals for 2,572 units 
including the 650 unit Glen Hazel Devel¬ 
opment, the South Side High-rise for the 
elderly and over 300 units in the Hill 
District. 

These proposals have been put to¬ 
gether with the approval of HUD as 
well as community support. HUD must 
now do its part to back up its com¬ 
mitment and follow through with the 
necessary funding. 

CITY WIDE IMPROVEMENTS 1972-73 

In 1972 the Public Works Department 
resurfaced 32 miles of streets and re¬ 
habilitated 11 bridges. This compares to 
an average of 8.2 miles of street repav¬ 
ing (per year from 1966 to 1970. 

During the past year’s Pa Pitt summer 
clean-up program over 22,000 tons of 
debris were removed from our neighbor¬ 
hoods as compared to 7,880 in 1969. 

The street lighting program placed 
3,812 new mercury vapor lights on our 
city streets as compared to 1,651 in 1969. 

Although federal funds are no longer 
available, we demolished 600 buildings 


484 



in 1972—an all-time record which in¬ 
cluded the old incinerator and the Old 
Oswald and Hess Plant. This compares 
to 400 in 1969. 

In November, 1972 fifty-two new fire¬ 
men were appointed in the Fire Bureau 
and by June 1973 another 58 will be 
added as a result of the reduction in 
working hours of firemen. 

The Water Department is also con¬ 
necting a new 16 inch water main to 
the West End Elliott area of the City 
at a cost of $727,000. The new main 
will assure an adequate supply of water 
to these residents for domestic needs, 
fire protection and for new develop¬ 
ments. 

Work will begin in 1973 on a new 
sewer system along Saw Mill Run at a 
cost of $1,350,000. This 4 ewer will in¬ 
crease capacity and make possible new 
residential and commercial develop¬ 
ments. 

In 1972 nineteen city park locations 
were lighted under the Department of 
Parks and Recreation lighting program 
and 61 play areas were resurfaced for 
basketball, multi-purpose courts and tot 
lots. 

Architectural designs and specifications 
for bids were completed for the new 
Schenley Park and South Side skating 
rinks which will be constructed in 1973. 

In 1972 we went beyond Labor Day by 
keeping twelve of the larger city pools 
open until Sep .ember 30. 

In 1973 six new pools will be con¬ 
structed in Carrick, Arlington Heights, 
Homewood, Sheraden, Manchester and 
LawrenceviUe. They will be the first 
new swimming pools to be constructed 
in the City since 1954. 

The Fall Flower Show was conducted 
for the first time Downtown and 
attracted 81,000 visitors almost double 
the previous year’s attendance. 

Major renovation is now underway at 
the Schenley Park Golf Course Club 
House; the lobby of the City-Coun.y 
Building has been restored to its former 
elegance and the North Side Library is 
being renovated and a new heating sys¬ 
tem has been installed at the main zoo 
in Highland Park. 


In the Cuy Planning process the voices 
of the neighborhoods were heard in the 
900 community meetings held in 1972. 

The Six Year Development Program 
projects capital expenditures through 
1977. The six year cost of $238 million 
will require 30 percent local funding. 

The 1973 Capital Improvement Pro¬ 
gram calls for expenditures of $60 mill¬ 
ion to improve our public buildings, 
streets, water lines and recreational 
facilities. 

Fourteen Capital Improvement Projects 
for recreational facilities will require 
advances of $4.7 million in order to be 
cair.ed out. These funds will be even¬ 
tually recovered from s.ate and federal 
sources after completion of the pro¬ 
jects. 

The projects include improvements in 
McKinley Park, a new swimming pool 
in Sheraden Park, a new athletic com¬ 
plex in West Park on the North Side; 
Schenley Park and South S-de skating 
rinks, Market Square renova.ion, a new 
parx. in East Hills, three specially design¬ 
ed innovative playgrounds in East Lib¬ 
erty, Mt. Washington and Herron Hill, a 
new park in the lower Hill on Cliff 
Street, improvements in the Larimer 
Playground and renovation of facilities 
in Sunnyside Playground in the West 
End. 

HOME RULE 

In 1973 I will recommend to the Home 
Rule Study Commission that the strong 
Mayor form of government be retained 
and the study commission adopt the 
present Charter Acl. Some revisions and 
updating may be required but basically 
we have a sound basis for the Home 
Rule in the present Charter Act. 

TAX SUBSIDIES 

In 1973 the total city subzidy for Three 
Rivers Stadium and the Civic Arena will 
be $1.2 million. Even though its been 
a great year for sports at the Stadium, 
it will still require substantial subsidy 
from city taxpayers of over $750,000 
to make up the deficit on the Stadium 
bonds. An addit.onal subsidy of $425,000 
from city taxpayers will also be required 
to make up the deficit on the Auditor¬ 
ium Authority bonds.

LABOR RELATIONS 

The City has entered into a two-year 
contract with police and a three year 
contract with the firemen. Over a three 
year period the hours of City firemen 
will be reduced from 50 to 42 hours a 
week. 

For our remaining regular City em¬ 
ployees, I am recommending the City 
pay the full cost of family coverage hos¬ 
pitalization, major medical insurance and 
life insurance in addition to an across 
the board wage increase. 

Each employee's average total benefits 
will be approximately $500. Almost all 
of this will be in the form of increased 
take home pay. 

These recommendations for municipal 
employees are in line with the settle¬ 
ments with police, fire and refuse 
workers. 

The major reasons for the increase 
in the 1973 budget are mandated in¬ 
creases of over $5.4 million including 
employees wage increases and fringe 
benefits, power and utility rates, Social 
Security contributions, water rents and 
the additional $4.7 million increase for 
necessary advances for the Capital Im¬ 
provement Program. 

Other contributing factors, totaling $3 
million include increases for Carnegie 
Library, automotive equipment, demoli¬ 
tion, overtime, water system rehabilita¬ 
tion and asphalt materials. 

ECONOMY 

The unique savings of the last several 
years offers the City some breathing 
room but it has not changed the basic 
gap of income and expenses. Our rev¬ 
enues grow at a rate of one percent 
while expenses climb at a rate of six 
percent a year. 

There have been no increases during 
this administration in parking or amuse¬ 
ment taxes or in the business privilege 
tax—while all have benefitted from a 
two mill reduction in real estate taxes. 
In addition business has received size¬ 
able reductions in real estate assess¬ 
ment from the courts—over $8 million 
In refunds has been returned by this 
City alone from 1967 to 1972. The total 


refunds in Downtown real estate taxes 
from the three taxing bodies exceeded 
$16 million during the five year period. 

One of the fairest taxes in this City 
has been the parking tax. It encourages 
the use of public transportation. To 
reduce this tax would be to encourage 
all day parking downtown thereby fill¬ 
ing up the lots and discouraging the 
use of parking by shoppers and other 
patrons of Downtown businesses. More¬ 
over, the reduction sought by a handful 
of parking lot owners would not be 
passed onto the taxpayers but would 
place an additional $1.5 million in their 
own pockets. 

We are striving to provide a climate 
that is conducive to the maintenance 
and further expansion of the City’s 
economic base. When compared to in¬ 
creases in taxes prevalent in most other 
major cities, our accomplishments in tax 
reduction and efficient management In 
government are becoming increasingly 
recognized by businessmen in making 
locational decisions. 

As we are all aware, a recent rash of 
plant closings have appeared as a threat 
to our short-term employment growth. 
Such closings are part of a national trend 
of manufacturing closings in cities 
throughout the nation. Although the 
particular reasons for these closings were 
varied, the most prevalent factor was 
contract disputes between management 
and labor. 

In most cases I have personally con¬ 
tacted the local representatives of these 
employers and I assure you that the ser¬ 
vices of your City’s government and its 
departments were freely offered. 

In cooperation with the Pittsbu.^'i 
Chamber of Commerce we have under¬ 
taken ia survey of local manpower needs 
in business and industry. 

To aid in the economic and manpower 
needs of the community I am appointing 
Mrs. Louise Brown to chair the (Mayor’s 
Economic Manpower Advisory Committee. 
This Committee will be composed of 
leaders from business and labor as well 
as citizens and public agencies. 

This coincidental and unfortunate 
period of job loss should not, however, 
be taken out of context. These few com- 


486 




panies, while important represent, only a 
small percentage of the 15,000 to 16,000 
companies doing business in Pittsburgh. 
Our unemployment rate for October, the 
last available month, has decreased to 
4.7 percent which places Pittsburgh's 
unemployment below the national aver¬ 
age. According to local and national 
economists the prospects for continued 
growth in the Pittsburgh economy and 
resultant employment are excellent. 

In all, Pittsburgh looks forward to a 
prosperous new year with a healthy econ¬ 
omy and a financially strong and res¬ 
ponsible government.

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. President, I would like to 
enter into the record of Council the 
fact, and I discussed this with every 
Councilman here, privately, that the City 
Solicitor has advised Council President 
and myself as Chairman of the Finance 
Committee, that with the exception of 
the Real Estate Tax and Water Service 
charges, all tax presently imposed by the 
City of Pittsburgh under Act 511, speci¬ 
fically those taxes as Earned Income, 
Business Privilege, Amusement Tax, Mer¬ 
cantile, Parking, Institutional and Service 
Privilege Tax, and the Occupation and 
Personal Property Tax, in order to be 
reduced or increased, in order to be 
changed, it is required they be adver¬ 
tised in the newspapers three weeks prior 
to the prospective change. This is a new 
approach but one the Solicitor feels is 
binding. 

On that basis, in consultation with 
most of my colleagues, it was concluded 
we should advertise this Friday that we 
are anticipating or planning a 50 per 
cent reduo Lion in all of those taxes. This 
is not meant to imply we intend to re¬ 
duce those taxes. Such an advertisement 
is not binding, but leaves Council that 
option. In addition, the legal opinion 
the Solicitor sent me this morning, dated 
December 4, 1972, I would like to sub¬ 
mit to this Council for inclusion in the 
record as a matter received and filed 
in order to make a proper record for 
this body. 

The Chair presented 

Bill No. 1273. RESOLVED, That 
the reappointment of Charles E. Coates, 
of 530 Bigham Road, Pittsburgh, Pa. 
15211, as a member of the Board of 
the Allegheny County Sanitary Author¬ 
ity, commencing January 1, 1973 and 


495 




expiring December 31, 1977, is hereby 
approved and confirmed. 

Which was read. 

Mr. Lynch; 

Mr. President, and with my col¬ 
leagues’ indulgence, in view of the fact 
I have had a long association with Mr. 
Coates in the hanking and business work, 
I would consider it a privilege to move 
for unanimous acclamation that he be 
retained on that board. 


Which motion prevailed, and the re o- 
lution was adopted. 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
November 27, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And on motion of Mr. ( aligniri, 
Council adjourned.

MOTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS 

Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. President, I think, for the 
official record, it ought to be noted this 
Council met with the Department of 
Highways on Thursday, December 14. 
The meeting, as you will recall, was in 
executive session; it was not a matter of 
public record. 

I think dt ought to be duly noted 
today that we did meet with the Secre¬ 
tary of Transportation, trying to bring 
about some meaningful solution on East 
Street. It also should be noted to our 
invitation, neither the Mayor of the City 
of Pittsburgh, nor the Director of the 
Department of City Planning appeared 
for the meeting. This is a matter of 
serious concern to me. Anytime you’re 
able to bring the Secretary of Transpor¬ 
tation to these Council Chambers and 
the Director of that Department or the 
Mayor does not show up, I think we are 
working to the disinterest of the citizens 
of the community. 


Some reported in the prers there was 
nothing accomplished. I would like to 
differ with that remark. I don’t think 
you resolve a problem of this magnitude 
in a 90-minute meeting but I think you 
can get started toward the resolving of 
the problem and I think that is what 
we tried to do. 

For the first time, Council heard there 
was an official position of the Mayor. 
He never made it known to this Council; 
however, Mr. Kassob was able to express 
that to us at this meeting. At the same 
time the Mayor pointed out what he 
preferred over the former plan and we 
know how these two programs are not in 
synchronization. Before we can get on 
with it, we have to get the Mayor and 
the Secretary of Transportation to agree 
to a viable program for that Valley, and 
then, when that program is presented 
to this Council, I am sure this Council 
can vote for the greater progression of 
the project. 

It is a sick community and what we 
saw on Thursday {morning is not the 
spirit of cooperation that will move this 
community ahead and I think that ought 
to be made a part of the public record 
today. 

Mir. Fagan: 

It will be put in the minutes 
today for our Municipal Record. 

Mr. Lynch moved 

That Mr. Mason be excused for 
absence from this meeting. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mir. Lynch moved 

That the Minutes of Council, of 
Monday, December 11, 1972, be approved. 

Which motion prevailed. 

Mr. Kamyk moved 

That this meeting be adjourned 
and that the next meeting of Council be 
on Tuesday, December 26, 1972, at 2:00 
o’clock, P.M. 

Which motion prevailed. 

And Council adjourned.

Fresidmt and Members of Council 
510 Cit>-County Building 
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 

Gentlemen and Madam: 

I am forwarding a Resolution

Which was read, received and filed. 
Also, 

Bill No. 1360. RESOLVED, That 
the appointment by the Mayor of David 
O’Loughlin of 910 Grandview Avenue, 
be and the same is hereby approved and 
confirmed as a member of the Pittsburgh 


Housing Authority, to a term ending 
October 10, 1974. 

Which was read. 


Mr. Michaels: 

Mr. Chairman, I would like to 
speak to that appointment. 

I have no objection to Mr. David 
O’LoughLn personally. As a matter of 
fact, my own personal experience with 
this man has always been one of high 
respect for him. However, his appoint¬ 
ment to an independent Authority I do 
find quite objectionable. 

I think that the Mayor has done this 
on a number of previous occasions and 
I don’t think it works towards the best 
interest of this City. And since he has 
a great deal to do with the board and 
staff, I think when he creates an auth¬ 
ority, he ought to create one where he 
brings in independent citizens who do 
not have their income dependent upon 
the Mayor’s appointment. In this case, 
you have a man who has previously been 
appointed to jobs who now tahe a posi¬ 
tion on that board. 

Is there a resume submitted for Mr. 
O’Loughlin? If not, I request also that 
such a resume be submitted. 

Under these circumstances, I am afraid 
before voting for Mr. O’Loughlin, I would 
like to have the position clear and until 
such time that it is clear, I suggest 
that it be held for two weeks.

Mr, Caliguiri: 

Mr. President: 

Before we consider the budget bills 
before us for final action, I would 
like to suggest these recommendations 
to Council. 

After a careful analysis of the May¬ 
or’s budget, there is approximately seven 
(7) million dollars surplus over and 
above the 13 million dollars that was 
needed to eliminate the 1% wage tax. I 
would like to make these recommenda¬ 
tions on how to utilize this money so 
that it can be reflected in the budget 
for specific items. They would be first 
under the category of Housing, that we 
appropriate one (1) million, fifty (50) 
thousand dollars. This would include 
at least four (4) different categories: a 
revolving rehabilitation fund, relocation 
fund, emergency housing repair fund 
and a fund for ancillary services for the 
elderly. 

Also, I would like to see an Office of 
Economic Development. This office 
would have a staff that would be respon¬ 
sible for trying to hold businesses in 
Pittsburgh and of course, helping the 
existing businesses with their problems, 
and also trying to influence and attract 
new industries to the City. In effect, it 
would be “selling Pittsburgh,” some¬ 
thing that certainly is needed. 

I would like to see one (1) hundred 
thousand dollars appropriated for this 
office. It may seem like it is a little 
repetitious to some of the agencies that 
are doing this now, but I think if this 
office was right in the administration, 
and the staff being responsible to the 
administration, you might see results 
immediately. 

In the area of recreation, I would like 
to see eight new community centers 
built. These old centers that cannot be 
funded by any other agency, except 
revenue sharing. I would like to see 
these built in Lawrenceville, South Oak¬ 


land, Sheraden, Oakwood, In the 27th 
and 26th Wards, the 31st Ward, Hazel¬ 
wood-Greenfield and Overbrook, at a 
cost of 2.6 million dollars. 

Also, two more skating rinks, in the 
East End section of the City and the 
Beechwood-Brookline section at a cost 
of one (1) million dollars. 

Also a Contingent Fund, and Coun¬ 
cil is right now considering a Contin¬ 
gent Fund, in the Department of Public 
Safety, the Public Works Department 
and Parks and Recreation. In Public 
Safety, ($1,225.00) one (1) million 
and a quarter and Public Works and 
Parks and Recreation, $500,000 each. In 
Public Safety; there are still police va¬ 
cancies in the budget. There are 102 
first year policemen in the budget and 
that they be hired, specifically as beat 
policemen; and that this Contingency 
Fund be set up in Council’s hands so 
that we can recommend we get this 
type of consideration for beat policemen. 

In the manner, as I outlined, I would 
like to see the funds allocated so that 
they reflect specific items; that the 
communities and the neighborhoods can 
specifically recognize these funds allo¬ 
cated to their neighborhoods and in this 
manner make certain that the money Is 
spent for their community. And that if 
it isn’t spent, at least they can come to 
Council and we can show them item by 
item where the money is allocated, that 
Council did, in fact, appropriate these 
funds for their community. 

Thank you, Mr. President. 

The Chair: 

Is that in the form of a motion, 
Mr. Caliguiri? 

Is there a second to that motion, 
once? 

Is there a second to that motion, 
twice 


Mr. Lynch: 

Mr. President, could I recom¬ 
mend to my colleague, Mr. Caliguiri, 
that his observations are well taken and 
would he be willing to withdraw his mo- 


534 



tion and make a communication to the 
Mayor expressing the general rule of 
Council, if not himself. 

I think that position is well taken and 
I think that everyone agrees that the 
money should he spent that way After 
wrestling with the budget for two year, 
three years now, and it is obvious that 
we can’t force the Mayor to do that by 
including it in an allocation. So, I am 
wondering if I might request my col¬ 
league to withdraw the motion and 
make it a communication to the Mayor. 

Mr. Caliguiri: 

Mr. President, I will withdraw 
the motion and make a formal recom¬ 
mendation that these recommendations 
be forwarded to the Mayor’s office. 

Mr. Lynch: 

Thank you, Mr. Caliguiri. 

BUDGET MESSAGE FOR THE 

CITY OF PITTSBURGH 
AS GIVEN BY CITY COUNCIL 

JOHN P. LYNCH, Finance Chairman 
December 29, 1972 

Gentlemen: 

The Budget for the City of Pittsburgh 
for the year 1973 is 120.2 million dollars. 
This figure includes 14.5 million which 
the City has received as a result of the 
Federal Revenue Sharing Program. Thus, 
the budget figure is 9.9% over the 
budget for the year 1972. 

Now in constructing this budget, your 
City Council was once again faced with 
the problem of attempting to elicit in¬ 
formation from a hostile and uncooper¬ 
ative administration which appeared 
more interested in hiding surplus than 
in properly dealing with it. 

This Council has this year held more 
budget hearings in the construction of 
this budget than any Council in recent 
memory. We have attempted to allow 
as much citizen participation as hu¬ 
manly possible within the limited time 
span available to us. On that score, it 
must be pointed out that Council is 
faced with a deadline which yearly 


grows more absurd. This year, for ex¬ 
ample, while we were ostensibly given 
thirty (30) days in which to construct 
the 120 million dollar budget, the fact 
is that it was necessary for us to decide 
in four (4) days two key questions. 
Namely, what taxes we were likely to 
change or reduce or eliminate and sec¬ 
ondly, what size these tax changes were 
likely to take We had four (4) days in 
which to do this. I think that the State 
Legislature in Pennsylvania ought to be 
aware of the fact that a deadline for the 
Mayor to deliver a budget the first week 
in December is unrealistic, ridiculous and 
unworkable for a Council. Some effort 
should be made to change that so that 
we would at least have an additional 
thirty (30) days to work on this budget. 
Therefore, we are face, in affect, with 
the problem of providing the answers 
before we were sure of what the ques¬ 
tion was. So, we decided what we could 
do and we set about to have hearings to 
see what the problem was, kind of a 
backward day to do business. Pittsburgh 
has called for the elimination of the 
wage tax. This is a reduction of 13.5 
million dollars in stated surplus. A care¬ 
ful scrutiny of the budget however, con¬ 
vinces us that the actual surplus may be 
a great deal larger. We have therefore, 
wrestled with the problem of whether to 
continue to attempt to urge the Mayor 
to spend funds for the purpose of their 
allocation or to once again resign our¬ 
selves to another appropriation which 
we all know will not be used on behalf 
of our citizens. 

We have come to the conclusion that 
if City taxpayers cannot expect to have 
services provided to him for which he 
has paid his taxes, then he is reasonably 
entitled to tax relief. For this reason 
then, we are reducing several taxes. 
First, the Retail Mercantile Tax from 2 
mills to 1 mill and we are reducing the 
real estate taxes by 2 mills on laud and 
1 mill on buildings. In addition, we are 
changing the structure of the parking 
tax so as to create a better margin of 
profit of the parking lot operators in the 
City of Pittsburgh. 

A few words on these topics would be 
in order. First, with regard to the Mer¬ 
cantile Tax. It should be clearly under¬ 
stood that this reduction was not 
brought about in order to create better 


535 




profit for mechants but with, a specific 
goal of creating a better and healthier 
business climate in the City. I point out, 
therefore, to those merchants affected 
by this tax reduction that they ought 
to pass it on to the consumer in the 
form of additional parking subsidy and 
transit subsidy, an avenue which haB 
not heretofore been considered in order 
to create a better volume of business. 

Council will be watching the results of 
this tax reduction in order to measure 
the effect on the business community 
and to see that it is used for the pur¬ 
poses that business organizations have 
claimed for it during the lengthy 
budget hearings just completed. We 
would recommend a token or transit 
subsidy from the mechants to alleviate 
the cost of mass transit for the shoppers 
in and out of downtown Pittsburgh. It 
is my personal conviction that Pitts¬ 
burgh must soon consider a “no fare” 
transit within the City limits, subsidized 
by the County taxes and the State taxes 
in order to offset the disparity which 
exists between the county residents and 
the City taxpayers. 

Secondly, we became aware of the ex¬ 
istence of an injustice as regards the 
parking lot operators and the tax struc¬ 
ture on the present existing parking tax. 
We are happy to concur with the Mayor 
in his efforts to change this tax to a 
transaction tax which will more equita¬ 
bly transmit the tax revenues from the 
parking lot consumer to the City of 
Pittsburgh Treasurer without undue 
pressure on the operator of the parking 
lot. Again, however, it must be clearly 
pointed out that the intent of Council 
here is to provide a better profit margin 
for the operator of the parking lot with¬ 
in the existing price structure and not to 
increase the price of parking to the con¬ 
sumer. We call upon the Pittsburgh 
Parking Authority to carefully review the 
cost structure here with these in mind. 

City Council is further considering 
during the coming year as outlined by 
Mr. Caliguiri earlier, the use of citizens 
groups to identify and study specific 
needs of our City, a procedure which has 
been recommended by the Pennsylvania 
League of Cities and for which money 
was set aside last year. In order to in¬ 
sure that City Council, in the future, 
will have adequate facts for the estab¬ 


lishment of fiscal and other City policies 
plus other information at its disposal 
which it has full confidence In, Council 
will be giving early consideration to a 
creation and a continuance of an ade¬ 
quate and professional staff for its own 
use. 

For these purposes, we have estab¬ 
lished a fund under Council’s Miscella¬ 
neous Service Budget in order to ex¬ 
plore these areas of performance for this 
coming year. 

Council further feels that some tax re¬ 
lief ought to he given to the citizens 
who are on a fixed income or who 
would not otherwise be affected by wage 
tax reductions and parking lot reduc¬ 
tions. I am talking about the pension¬ 
er and the elderly. For that reason, we 
are reducing real estate 2 mills on land 
and 1 mill on buildings. Council is fur¬ 
ther happy to support the Mayor’s pro¬ 
posal to eliminate the wage tax and we 
would hope that the operation of City 
government in the future will not make 
re-establishment of this tax necessary. 

In a few comments here, I might men¬ 
tion that the Mayor in his budget does 
not find it necessary to budget an allo¬ 
cation for the Home Rule Study Com¬ 
mission which was recently elected In 
in our election and which is mandated 
to perform a study of City government. 
Council did include an appropriation for 
$85,000 for the Home Rule Study Com¬ 
mission. It is presently our intention to 
advance those monies to that Commis¬ 
sion as needed under the law based on 
rebate principle If they need the money. 

We have also passed legislation this 
year which entitles widows of Police and 
Firemen who have not, heretofore, re¬ 
ceived any pension and who are elderly 
and will be a disappearing group, to re¬ 
ceive at least $100 a month, a long over 
due social justice to which they were en¬ 
titled. 

A few comments might be in order 
with respect to City Council’s relations 
with the Mayor. In the past years, the 
present Mayor of the City has attempted, 
with considerable success I might add, 
to use Council as a foil and paint us as 
an uncooperative body which does not 
operate in the best interests of City gov¬ 
ernment, The implication is made that 


536 



monopolies on virtue which is held only 
in the Mayor’s office. This is an un¬ 
fortunate position for any legislative 
body to be in but one with which we 
must cope and must continue to antici¬ 
pate. With that in mind, we have re¬ 
established the Contingency Fund prin¬ 
cipal in order that at least in this fash¬ 
ion, we might be in position to compel 
cooperation from the Administration in 
spelling out the spending plans and 
programs in the course of the year. X 
might also point out that this Council 
has made every possible effort to provide 
a public forum in an area of great pub¬ 
lic debate. In the process of doing this, 
Council at times, looked argumentative 
and quarrelsome among themselves. But 
I believe that this is the fashion in 
which a free, democratic government 
must conduct itself. If the important 
issues and questions that come before 
our government are hammered out on 
the anvil of controversy, then this 
Council has indeed done its job. 

I would be unjust if it did not com¬ 
mend the Mayor for some of the house¬ 
keeping problems that he has been able 
to unfold. Certainly his government 
has been austere as has been shown and 
the Mayor has set a course in holding 
down the spending line of our City and 
any reasonable man would commend him 
in this area. On the other hand, it also 
is necessary, I think, to offer the criti¬ 
cism that he has failed to provide the 
leadership necessary to get all of the fac¬ 
tions within the City moving progress¬ 
ively and in orderly fashion. 

It is obvious that the business com¬ 
munity has become disenchanted; the 
labor forces have become distrustful and 
suspicious. There is a general feeling of 
fear and distrust which is not a healthy 
climate for the City of Pittsburgh. I 
would appeal to the Mayor to open up 
the City government to all the people 
and make himself more readily avail¬ 
able. In this light, I criticize, then, the 
Mayor for his operation in secrecy and 
point out that he has failed to ade¬ 
quately communicate with Council or 
the public, either in questions where he 
has b3en wrong, but even more astound- 
ingly, where he has been right. The 
leadership necessary to get this City 
moving again can only come from the 
office of the Mayor, not from any spe¬ 
cific body. 


I think that the budget that we have 
constructed is a good one. I think that 
it will adequately meet the needs of the 
City. I think that if it is properly man¬ 
aged and properly handled, we can con¬ 
tinue to meet our expenses and provide 
for the City’s needs without further tax 
increase for the next two (2) years at 
least. I am not willing to look further 
down the road than that. 

I would say finally, that whatever is 
in this budget that we have presented, 
due to typographical errors or oversights, 
specifically, the City Clerk will correct 
those administrative oversights and ty¬ 
pographical errors to the best interest of 
the City Government. 

I would like further, on a personal 
note, to point out that being a member 
of Council who sat as Chairman of this 
Committee, every member was particu¬ 
larly cooperative. In constructing the 
budget in years past, I think the burden 
has fallen more heavily on the City Fi¬ 
nance Chairman and this year every sin¬ 
gle member of Council has cooperated 
fully in constructing his budget and I 
want to thank you personally for that. 

I wish everyone here a Happy New 
Tear and I am proud to be among you. 

Thank you very much.

^^N ORDINANCE—Amending the Build¬ 
ing Code, Ordinance No # 300, ap¬ 
proved August 6, 1947, as amended, by 
adding a new Chapter 46, requiring reg¬ 
istration by owners of certain real es¬ 
tate located in the City of Pittsburgh, 
under certain terms and conditions. 

The Council of the City of Pittsburgh 
hereby enacts as follows: 

Section 1. The Building Code, Ordi¬ 
nance No. 300, approved August 6, 1947, 
is amended by adding a new chapter as 
follows: 

Chapter 45. Registration Certificates — 
Sec. 4501. Legislative Findings— 


The Council of the City of Pitts¬ 
burgh hereby finds: 

(1) In order to protect the health, 
safety and general welfare of the 
citizens and inhabitants of the City, 
the City has enacted a comprehen¬ 
sive Fire Code, a comprehensive 
Building Code, and other municipal 
codes. 

(2) The enforcement of these pro¬ 
tective legislative measures has 
been seriously hampered as a result 
of the fact that many owners of 
rental property reside outside the 
City of Pittsburgh and have not 
been amenable to service of process 
in the City of Pittsburgh. Such 
owners have rented property and 
collected rent with impunity for 
premises which failed to comply with 
the standards of the above-men¬ 
tioned ordinances and were in many 
cases unfit for human habitation. 

(3) The welfare of the inhabitants 
of the City of Pittsburgh requires 
that any owner of real estate in the 
City of Pittsburgh by virtue of his 
ownership thereof be amenable to 
service of process in connection with 
any violation of City of Pittsburgh 
ordinances with respect to such prop¬ 
erty. This is especially so where 
rents are being collected by or on 
behalf of an owner who resides out¬ 
side the City and the County of 
Allegheny. 

(4) In numerous cases considerable 
and fruitless effort has been re¬ 
quired by the Bureau of Building 
Inspection seeking to determine the 
actual owner of real estate and 
where he resides, or if a corpora¬ 
tion, whers its office is located. 

(5) The public interest requires 
that the Bureau of Building Inspec¬ 
tion have an up-to-date list of the 
real owners of all residential real 
estate in Pittsburgh (except single 
family owner-occupied dwellings or 
duplex dwellings in which the owner 
occupies one unit) and vacant lots, 
and where the owners live outside 
the City of Pittsburgh and the 
County of Allegheny a list of persons 
living within Allegheny County au¬ 
thorized to accept service on their 
behalf. 


339 




(6) Where any owner of real estate 
In Pittsburgh who resides outside 
the County of Allegheny and fails 
to register an agent in the County 
of Allegheny to accept service on 
his behalf, the public interest re¬ 
quires that he be deprived for the 
period of non-compliance of the 
benefits of his ownership of the said 
real estate or the benefits of the 
administrative or judicial machine 
ery of the County for enforcement of 
any rights with respect thereto. 

(7) Many thousands of Pittsburgh 
citizens are forced by lack of ade¬ 
quate housing to reside in premises 
which are dilapidated and not 
maintained by the owners in com¬ 
pliance with the ordinances of the 
City of Pittsburgh. This situation 
is of very serious proportions, pro¬ 
ducing resentment and unrest 
among the said citizens, who are le¬ 
gally entitled to adequate housing, 
and stringent measures are required 
to ameliorate this situation 

Sec. 4502. Registration: Time to File 

(1) The owner of any vacant lot or 
of any building or structure which 
is wholly or partly used or intended 
to be used for living or sleeping by 
human occupants, except single 
family owner-occupied dwellings or 
duplex dwellings in which the own¬ 
er occupies one unit shall file a reg¬ 
istration statement with the Bureau 
in accordance with the provisions of 
this chapter, provided however that 
this section shall not apply to any

tal entity or any public authority. 

(2) A registration statement shall

thereafter not later than ten 
days after the owner of a one- or 
two-family dwelling moves out of 
the building. 


(b) Prior to the issuance of a cer¬ 
tificate of occupancy, for any 
rooming house or multi-family 
dwelling hereafter erected, or any 
dwelling or building hereafter al¬ 
tered or converted to a multi-fam¬ 
ily dwelling. 

(c) Within such time as provided 
in Sec. 4504 in the case of a 
change of ownership where regis¬ 
tration is required under this 
Chapter.

tion statement on file in the Bu¬

ises are completely vacant and the en¬ 
tire supply of water is shut off, upon 
filing by the owner of a notarized va¬ 
cancy affidavit in the office of the De¬ 
partment of Water, exonerations of 
ninety percent (90%) will be issued for 
the flat rate assessment for the period 
during which the entire premises were 
vacant and the water shut off, provid¬ 
ed that the period during which the wa¬ 
ter is shut off is greater than sixty (60) 
consecutive days; and provided further 
that where premises acquired by the 
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the 
School District of Pittsburgh and the 
Urban Redevelopment Authority of 
Pittsburgh for highway, school and re¬ 
development purposes respectively, are

of water is shut off and the meter re¬ 
moved, exonerations of 100% shall be 
made in the case of any building which 
the Commonwealth, the School District 
of Pittsburgh or the Urban Redevelop¬ 
ment Authority of Pittsburgh certifies 
to be vacant and scheduled for demoli¬ 
tion.

cessive assessments must be made dur¬ 
ing the current year in which the as¬ 
sessments are made, or within twelve 
(12) months after the termination of 
said year, and no exonerations shall be 
granted after said period has expired.

sylvania, the School District of Pitts¬ 
burgh and the Urban Redevelopment 
Authority of Pittsburgh shall apply only

scribed.
